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.

Un jour où « j’envisageais les arbres », j’ai ramassé des écorces tombées sur le sol. Puis j’en ai assemblé quelques unes qui ont fini par former un personnage que j’ai trouvé très beau sous tous les angles. J’ai paré son vêtement d’un galon en soie bleu nuit. Je n’ai pas trouvé le moyen d’assembler les pièces solidement les unes aux autres. L’œuvre était faite, ça m’allait très bien et elle m’a accompagnée longtemps. Un ami m’a félicitée sur cette très belle pièce et conseillé de la faire réaliser en bronze. Je n’en ai rien fait et l’œuvre a disparu sans que je m’en rende compte, perdant un petit bout d’écorce par ci et un autre par là, tout doucement, sans faire de bruit. Il reste des photos que j’ai envie de montrer pour honorer la mémoire de l’œuvre qui n’existe pas.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Digital Photography

Techniques for obtaining a photograph by using an electronic sensor as a photosensitive surface, then printing it on paper.

Collages

Collage is an artistic creation technique that consists of making a plastic creation by combining elements of various kinds: more or less flat materials, such as printed oilcloth, painting or drawing, newspaper extracts with text and photos, paper paintings, documents, various objects of low relief, etc. When the creation incorporates elements in relief, one can also speak of assemblage. This also includes glued papers, which employ a variety of papers, including newspaper, and drawing techniques.

Technic Photography

Photography refers to the combination of processes, techniques and materials that allow you to capture a subject in still images. Photograph also refers to the image that is obtained, whether it be phototype or not. This term can also be used to refer to the graphic arts branch that employs this technique.

Outside, inside, I look: everything is there.

I always start from something existing and forgotten that was waiting for me to go through it. I welcome and I collect what has no other interest than the way I look at it. It is the gaze that is creative when it is carried by desire.

Within the framework of the painting, the space of the installation, I organize improbable encounters that I strive to give rhythm, to make dance, vibrate. I take great pleasure in diverting my findings from their primary vocation. I give them a new address and doom them to another fate.
In the hollows, the full, the void and the loose, I show what, singularly, I see. I love little mother-of-pearl buttons in the hollow of silk waves and I hear the sea, I send black and white pastilles to the sky like so many bubbles of champagne and it's party time.
I like to see what did not exist before and which, without my intervention, would not have had a chance to happen.

The "Unwinders" are born from my very personal encounter with reels that have become useless due to plant closures.

From one painting to another, from "Days of celebration" to "Beaches in space", I trace a path strewn with little nuggets that I know are glowing under the dust that often covers them. Backgrounds, shapes, objects of all styles, from all eras and origins come together happily, freely. Small worlds in color and softness, islands of dreams and poetry where I invite your gaze to rest and rest.
