Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Chloe Yzoard

Spain

I was born in Charleville-Mezieres, Arthur Rimbaud’s native city in the North-East of France in 1981. Eager to change, I moved to London at 17 in order to pursue my upper education in environmental sciences at the University of East London.

Training

Autodidact painter, I attended several drawing classes at the Instituto Superior de Arte at Havana where I lived for a long period. In constant search of artistic enrichment, I practiced my drawing skills in artistic workshops and studied classic, contemporary and Afrocuban dances for several months.

I also have a five-years experience in drama and played the parts Marion and Angélique de Chiffreville parts in La Nuit de Valognes by Eric Emmanuel Schmidt, at the Steiner Theater, Baker Street, London in May 2003.

Artistic objectives

As a biologist, I have a particular interest in the animal kingdom, physical adaptations and the relationships that have been built through evolutions between the organisms and their environment.

My objectives are both artistic and pedagogical. Indeed, I wish to share my knowledge on these amazing beings and display there incredible diversity of shapes, uses and colors to everyone. My colorful and detailed work is accessible by young as well as older curiosities.

Its elaboration has been deeply influenced by years of traveling through Europe, Latin America and Africa. It focuses on the biodiversity, senses and invites visitors to observe every single detail of these know as well as unrecognizable subjects. My paintings stimulate the observation and imagination of people who are willing to play the game of guessing who all these shapes and organs belong to.
