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.

One of the most recognizable paintings of Ksenia is the painting “Thessaloniki. Paralia ”, which depicts the most popular place in Thessaloniki - the meeting place of citizens, the point of attraction of young people, life is in full swing, energy is concentrated here, as if Greece itself treats everyone with a cup of strong aromatic coffee or an invigorating frappe. Paralia is the heart of the city to which the artist’s brush and soul very gently touched.
Having plunged into the origins of European civilization, having absorbed the beauty and harmony of nature, the grandeur of ancient monuments and the lifestyle of Hellas, Ksenia reflected this, no doubt, special world in her own way, she found her own intonations and emotional accents and made significant progress in his work, professionally becoming ready for experiments. The first step on this path was the creation of a new collection, completely different from everything that had been written by it before. Only the source of inspiration remained unchanged - Greece.
