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.

"Vasistas ?", les œuvres de Natacha Mercier réalisées dans le cadre de la série "Hével", s’inscrivent dans le prolongement des "Vanitas", un travail amorcé depuis 2009 sur la vanité, l’illusion et la finitude. "Vasistas ?" examine la question de la frontière ; voir ce qu’il y a sous le voile, jusqu’où regarder derrière la surface de l’interdit, dans l’ordre établi des choses.
Le « Vasistas » est emprunté à l’allemand et signifie « Was ist das ? » (« Qu’est-ce que c’est ? ») ; il désigne aussi une petite ouverture qui permettait de voir le visiteur, remplacée plus tard par un judas. Quelque soit son acception, le terme implique de s’approcher physiquement pour voir de près de quoi il s’agit. natacha-mercier point com

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.
