About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Ink

A strongly tinted liquid or paste that is used to mark paper or other printable materials. The design is done manually with a slab, feather, brush, or straightener.

Watercolor

Watercolor is a painting in which gum arabic binds transparent pigments revealing the support of the painting. The gouache, of identical composition, is opaque. A watercolor is a water-based painting on paper. We rarely speak of a painting for a work painted in watercolor. Watercolor paintings are considered to be a unique way to creatively represent dreams, illusions, emotions and luminous feelings using water soluble pigments. However, painting with watercolors can be difficult. It's a difficult medium to master, in large part because it can be ruthless and unpredictable. Mistakes are difficult to correct and its fluid nature makes it difficult to control. Yet it is these very qualities that give the medium its undeniable charm.

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

France

Hélène Mongin is a visual artist who lives and works in Haute-Garonne. She graduated from the Ecoles Supérieures d'Arts Appliqués Boulle and Duperré (BTS textile art), and obtained a degree in plastic arts[...]

Hélène Mongin experiments and practices different artistic mediums, including drawing and ink for her recent "imperceptible landscapes", monotype and engraving, as well as digital photography which she mixes with inks and various natural and chemical products since 2006. .

His artistic work questions the space and time of the image, as well as that of the subject, with a recurring mise en abyme. She is inspired by her living environment and atmospheric phenomena such as twilight lights, clouds, storms, etc. She approaches the landscape as well as the portrait as motifs, in painting as in photography.

Hélène Mongin uses multiple simultaneous points of view to give a representation on several different scales at the same time. His artistic approach is marked by a constant research on the perception of the image and its relation to space-time.
