Laurence JENKELL - WRAPPING BONBON COLLECTOR VIOLET

Laurence Jenkell (born in 1965), known as JENK, is a French artist of international renown, famous for her iconic Wrapping Bonbon sculptures.

Based in the south of France, for more than 20 years she has transformed a universal symbol of childhood and pleasure into a pop, contemporary work that is immediately recognizable.

Made from plexiglass, polyester, bronze, aluminum, marble, or Murano glass, her sculptures play with color, light, and the torsional movement that has become her artistic signature.

Behind the apparent sweetness of her candies lies a reflection on society, desire, the environment, and collective memory.

Exhibited in more than 50 countries, featured in prestigious public and private collections, Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters, Laurence Jenkell is among the contemporary artists with the highest auction results on the international market (Artprice ranking).

Owning a work by Laurence Jenkell means entering a joyful, powerful, and timeless universe where contemporary art meets emotion and collecting.
