Technique

Mixed technique

Mixed media includes all works of art that incorporate a variety of materials and components in a single piece. Mixed media art is a work of art that combines acrylic paint with fabric and paper. Scrapbooking, sketchbooks, decoupage, greeting card design, and mixed media art journals are just a few examples of projects in which mixed media can be used. This artistic style dates back to the cubist creations of Pablo Picasso from 1912 to 1914, the root of the term itself, in its aesthetic sense, goes back to the artist Jean Dubuffet in the 1950s.

Description
Yesterday, an instrument of oppression imposing an artificial "S" silhouette, the corset limited women's movements and symbolized male domination. Today, an object of self-affirmation and freedom of expression, it becomes a symbol of power and emancipation. Beyond its historical and symbolic dimension, the corset invites us to reflect on the notions of beauty, gender and independence. It reminds us that true beauty is not limited to external appearance, but lies in the affirmation of being in agreement with oneself. The plaster cast of a mannequin bust recalls the constraints of society. Basketry, an ancestral art of weaving natural fibers, echoes nature and the wild.
