Vanessa Bonino - Sculpture, Look at me - 23 cm - Balsa - 2026

This three-dimensional work by Vanessa Bonino, crafted in wood and hand-painted, features a staggered block structure on a blue background with a gilded frame. At the center rises an eye, a highly symbolic element. Fragmented among the wooden blocks, the gaze represents the fragmented perception of reality and introspection. The eye is the "window of the soul": it watches the viewer, inviting them to look inside themselves, yet is in turn protected and filtered by matter. The warm, intense tones of the gaze contrast with the cold background, emphasizing emotional force, vigilance, and the search for a deeper meaning beyond the surface of things. It will be shipped inside sturdy packaging with a certificate of authenticity. Vanessa Bonino (Turin, 1992) is a contemporary artist whose current research focuses on the plastic force of material sculpture. Trained in the cultural fervor of Turin, Bonino has evolved her eclectic style toward an original synthesis between ceramic tradition and digital languages. Her latest productions attest to a deep experimentation with terracotta and glazed ceramics, where ancestral forms — such as the bull or carp figure — are reinterpreted through low-poly geometries or expressive, dynamic-modulated forms. Her stylistic signature is characterized by the skilled use of changing cold patinas and vitreous glazes, capable of transforming earth into surfaces vibrant with light and color. Addressing themes related to nature and the metamorphosis of matter, Bonino creates works that are simultaneously solid and fluid, inviting the viewer to reflect on the boundary between the archaic and the future. Her rising prominence in the Italian contemporary art scene is confirmed by an increasingly solid presence in private collections and dynamic exhibition contexts.
