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.

Sergey Lesnikov, a contemporary Russian painter, possesses a unique fascination with the allure of aged elements – the weathered patina of old wood, the seasoned charm of ancient metal, and the delicate craquelure cobweb on aged varnish. To him, these relics tell a story of time's transformative touch, emphasizing its materiality and intrinsic value.

His journey into the realm of creating art from reclaimed materials began with a profound contemplation of a massive hundred-year-old board salvaged from an ancient house. Sergey envisioned the untold stories encapsulated within the wood, ranging from forgotten icons to paintings lost in the folds of time. This imaginative exploration inspired him to craft artifacts that mimic the appearance of found treasures, bearing fragments of old paintings on aged wood. This initial spark has fueled his ongoing creative endeavors.

Armed with additional technical education, Sergey constantly seeks innovative technological solutions. Each of his works stands as a physical testament to its uniqueness, stemming from the distinctive qualities of the key element – old wood – and the intricacies of his artistic process. His dedication to exploration is evident in the diverse range of materials he incorporates, including elements of aged metal and more.

Sergey Lesnikov's artistic journey is a perpetual quest for new approaches and materials. Occasionally, he delves into the meticulous art of copying works by old masters, bridging the gap between past and present. Yet, when the longing for vibrant and clear colors strikes, he finds solace in the traditional realm of painting.
