As an artist myself in the French-speaking world, I\'ve seen and heard \"décliner\" and \"déclinaison\" used frequently. For example, you visit an art show by one artist - all the paintings have the same \"leitmotiv\" but each one is different. There is a certain harmony, homogeneity.
And I\'ve heard many artists say that they have no desire to restrict themselves to producing \"des séries (de tableaux) en déclinaison\"
