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.

Categories Figurative

Support de création fait de papiers déchirés collés sur toile, comme autant de
bouts de vie qui font notre moi profond. Création entièrement réalisée de mots
manuscrits. Les mots ou citations concernant la liberté d’expression, de la
presse, la liberté de penser ou de parler sont écrits à outrance, à la main, à
l’encre, sur ce patchwork de matières. Ecritures jetées ça et là au gré du
dessin, épars ou collés, juxtaposés, à l’endroit, à l’envers, superposés jusqu’à
l’excès, les mots sculptent le dessin, les reliefs se forment, ombres & lumières
apparaissent, le tableau prend corps.
Newspapers torn-patched up on canvas, like so many pieces of life that built
us. Painting entirely made out of handwritten words. Words or quotes
expressing freedom of thought are written in French & in English and thrown
on this patchwork of material, handwritten again and again until saturation,
scattered, pasted here and there according to the drawing... shadow and light appear naturally, painting crystallizes.

Other

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.

VAL D’OFF : Artiste Plasticienne / Visual Artist

TECHNIQUE MIXTE / MIXED MEDIA

Val d’Off puise son inspiration dans le graphisme des mots, leur symbolique ou leur sens propre, pour les décomposer, les recomposer, chercher leur face cachée et leur donner une nouvelle vie.

Val d’Off trempe son pinceau dans une palette de mots. Elle invente des tableaux à textes comme des chansons à textes. Papiers journaux, papiers livres, papiers manuscrits sont déchirés puis collés sur toile en support de créations. Le dessin, les écritures, les encres, crayons, couleurs et autres textures viennent en surimpression de ce patchwork de matières.

Les mots sont utilisés sous différentes formes :

- dactylographiés (travail sur marouflage de papiers journaux)

- fondus dans une image via supports numériques

- manuscrits (écrits ça et là au gré du dessin, épars ou collés, juxtaposés, à l’endroit, à l’envers, superposés jusqu’à l’excès…)

Val d’Off utilise les mots dans leur symbolique, personnelle et artistique. Elle nous conduit ainsi vers nos multitudes de mots, de morceaux de vécus, de fragments d’instants…

Donnez-lui des mots, elle en fera des tableaux.

Val d’Off draws her inspiration from the words’ graphics, their symbolic or their literal meaning, to decompose them, recompose them, search for their hidden side, giving them a new life.

Val d’Off dips her brush into a palette of words. She invents painting texts like song texts. News-papers, book-papers, manuscript-papers are torn, then glued onto canvas as a medium for her creations. The drawing, the writing, the inks, pencils, colors and other textures come as overprint on this patchwork of materials.

The words are used in different forms:

- typed (work on newspaper marouflages)

- melted in an image by way of digital mediums

- manuscripts (written here and there at the discretion of the drawing, scattered or glued, juxtaposed right way round, upside down, superimposed to excess…)

Val d’Off uses the symbolic significance of words, personal and artistic. She leads us this way toward our multitude of words, pieces of experience, fragments of a moment.

Give her words, she will make paintings out of them.
