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.

My approach:

My paintings embody imaginary spaces, suggested landscapes or enigmas, silhouettes or faces with sometimes unfinished contours.

They invite you to a timeless dive between often populated abstraction and figurative allusions. My sources of inspiration are most often linked to Nature and the elements Earth and Water.

Thus reinventing a world of images and colors, letting happen what random forms induce, to restructure new spaces of astonishment, such is my purpose

For me, painting is a path to meet the unexpected in oneself, in the other. A way to celebrate together the emergence of a future, a promise of beauty or appeasement in a world doomed to permanent chaos.
