About this artwork
This work belongs to a series of 17 paintings dedicated to dance. The title "Offering" refers to the gesture performed by the ballerina, with her face and chest raised upwards, as if offered to a higher power or a deity, in a motion of motionless anticipation. An offering as a gift of oneself, the gift of one's body for the beauty of dance.
This painting is a unique piece created using mixed media on canvas, combining photography, digital composition,… and acrylic paint (glossy lacquer glazes and semi-transparent gold squares). The canvas is signed and dated on the back. The painting is framed in black (overall dimensions: approximately 97 x 97 x 3.5 cm).

« In the age of digital technologies, I couldn't just be a painter or a photographer. My 'paintographies' destroy borders and offer a resolutely contemporary hybrid art. »
Georges Dumas's artistic approach is both simple and complex. While the aesthetic of his works, which he describes as "paintographies," is highly figurative, their composition is slow and complex, blending photography, digital art, and acrylic paint. Georges Dumas transforms the models he photographs into virtual sculptures by replacing their skin with mineral materials to represent both the passage of time and the fragility of the body.
