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.

This work is part of the "Elles" series. Made in 2019. Mixed technique: Acrylic, Ink, Resin on wooden support. The edges are painted black and stained for optimal protection. My artistic approach: “Elles”, this series of works represents muses, inspirations, encounters, experiences, which inspire, torment, make people think and help to create. The work of opposites and dualities represented by monochrome and color, figurative and abstract, creates unity. The staging of this unique and doubled profile sensuously moves the viewer. This intimacy is as real as between photography and painting. These two mediums, which have always been the engines of his inspiration, are here linked and frozen to each other. Each element finds its place and brings meaning to its opposite, giving birth to harmony. The perpetual movement between yin and yang represents the balance of life and the artistic work is no exception to this process. ___ This artwork is part of the series "Elles". Realized in 2019.

Française née en 1989 à Bordeaux. Photographe professionnelle depuis 10 ans, J.E. travaille différentes techniques picturales pour les conjuguer avec son travail photographique. Le portrait et l’autoportrait sont devenus l’essentiel de son travail.

« Un glissement s’est opéré lorsque j’ai choisi de travailler en argentique et de passer du portrait vers l’abstraction des corps et des visages en jouant avec le clair/obscure. Comme si le flou et les accidents inhérents au regard sur moi m’avaient menée à porter un regard moins net sur les autres. Leurs présences sont mieux ressenties et la matière des corps est appréhendée avec douceur et émotion. »

La matière qu’elle crée lui permet de rendre ses photographies plus vivantes et de cacher ou de suggérer l’âme au-delà des corps.

En 2018, après des années de recherches, elle commence à mettre sur toile ses inspirations qui l’ont nourrie.
Mêlant photographie et peinture, une métamorphose de l’espace vide immaculé de blanc s’opère.

« Comme la photographie fige un instant et préserve ce qui deviendra très vite un souvenir, la résine fige la matière et préserve l’œuvre dans le temps, pour la rendre durable et unique. »

French born in 1989 in Bordeaux, J.E. has been a Professional Photographer for 10 years, mastering various pictorial techniques to combine them with her photographic work.

"A shift occurred when I chose to work with film and moved from conceiving bodies and faces to their abstraction, playing with chiaroscuro. As if the vagueness and the accidents inherent in looking at me had led me to take a less precise look at others.
Their presence are better felt and the material of bodies is apprehended with gentleness and emotion."

The material that she creates allows her to obtain more lively photographs, and to hide or suggest the soul presence beyond the bodies.

In 2018, after years of research, she began to transfer on canvas the inspirations that have nourished her.
Mixing photography and painting, a metamorphosis took place on the pristine white empty space.

"As photography freezes an instant and retains what will very soon become a memory, resin freezes the material to preserve the artwork in time, making it unique and everlasting. »
