Description from the seller
Terracotta patinated
This sculpture of the toro’s face, painted in green tones, blends symbols of strength and introspection. The bull represents power and fertility, fundamental elements in nature, while the green evokes calm and depth, creating a fascinating contrast.
It features a hook for hanging. It will be shipped inside a solid package, with a certificate of authenticity.
Vanessa Bonino (Turin, 1992) is a contemporary artist whose current research concentrates 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 testify to a deep experimentation with terracotta and glazed ceramic, where ancestral forms — such as the bull’s figure or the carp — are reinterpreted through low-poly geometries or expressive, dynamic sculptures. Her stylistic signature is distinguished by a smart use of color-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 at once solid and fluid, inviting the viewer to reflect on the border between the archaic and the future. Her steady rise in the Italian contemporary art scene is confirmed by an increasingly solid presence in private collections and dynamic exhibition contexts."
