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.

Acrylique sur papiers collés sur bois. morceaux de tissus. Cette oeuvre représente une femme de profil portant une colonne de livres sur sa tête.
Femmes, livres, deux mots qui ne s’associaient pas toujours par le passé, histoires de chasse aux sorcières.. par le passé? L’éducation des filles reste un problème majoritaire dans beaucoup de pays.
Donc c’est une femme qui porte les livres, importance de la transmission, trace.
Les livres pour ce qu’ils sont, un accès à la culture, souvent difficile d’accès.
Les livres dans cette société de numérisation culturelle, se manipulent, se portent...
Des livres dangereux? Qui est dangereux, le lecteur? l’écrivain?
Les livres car ils sont tous une relations entre êtres humains.
Les livres car ils sont témoins de notre première invention fondamentale, humaine de notre civilisation que l’on dit en perdition.
Et bien non, il y a encore et toujours de l’espoir car dans la rue il y a cette femme qui porte les livres sous un soleil de plomb.

At 18, driven by the need to travel and the desire for independence, Yaël continued her studies in the Merchant Navy.

The closed environment awakens his practice of drawing; the maritime landscape, his taste for observation.

She changed course and made her way into artistic practice and art therapy.

Yaël leaves with her family for Gabon, meets a team of psychologists who offer her the opportunity to put her knowledge in Art therapy into practice.

A storytelling-therapeutic workshop is set up and is complemented by individual artistic mediation sessions for children with specific needs.

Yaël discovered Côte d'Ivoire in 2013. She then decided on her unconditional and professional artistic commitment.

Artist, woman, western. Yaël lived in the cradle of humanity for 8 years. She looks at the traces of the colonial past, of France Africa.

Côte d'Ivoire seems to him to be plundered by an icy system where money is only the engine of all decisions.

She asks forgiveness for all these past, present and future crimes. It's like "an official restitution" of works for her, her duty as an artist begins there.

She wants to wash humanity, repair wounds, make them less painful.

Today, having returned to France for a few months, she chooses the Clitoris as a symbol of evolution, to repair mutilated and abused bodies and hearts.

The Clitoris is the female organ, dedicated solely to pleasure. He too is in the shadows.

Nature has so decided. With clitoral artistic creations, abused women (and men) could find a voice in that of her Art.

A way towards the recognition of their suffering and, by sublimation, of their being.

We are desiring and desired beings.

The abused could find their way there without being drowned in the whirlwind of ephemeral and superficial media revelations.

We cut what exceeds to "look pretty" and enter the norm. For "well-thinking".
She wishes to put this creation of unlimited Clitoris at the service of Equality.

So that the message takes on its full meaning.

Do not take power but open up to the freedom to be, to choose one's place in society.
