AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The ceramic piece is a sculpture that depicts a cat, a work by the artist Vanessa Bonino. It is a figure that plays with rounded, soft forms, almost to emphasize the animal’s “plumpness” in a affectionate and stylized way.

The sculpture is made of ceramic and has a glossy, glazed finish. Light reflects on the surface, highlighting its curves and volumes.

The style is modern and minimalist. Although it is a representation of a cat, the artist focused more on the essential shapes and the sensations they evoke (tenderness, softness) than on a realistic reproduction of the details. The sculpture has a friendly and approachable air.

It will be shipped inside a sturdy packaging, with a certificate of authenticity.

Vanessa Bonino, born in Turin in 1992, is a contemporary artist known for her eclectic and innovative style. Her artistic research spans different techniques and materials, always with a strong attention to detail and experimentation. Her works often combine realistic and surreal elements, addressing themes related to nature, femininity, and identity, with a mix of elegance and expressiveness. Bonino stands out for her ability to interpret reality in an original way, creating pieces that stimulate reflection and emotionally engage the viewer. Her young career has led her to exhibit in various shows, solidifying her role in the Italian contemporary art scene.

Seller's Story

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 testify to a deep experimentation with terracotta and glazed ceramic, where ancestral forms — such as the bull or the carp — are reinterpreted through low-poly geometries or expressionist, highly dynamic sculptures. Her stylistic signature is distinguished by the expert use of color-shifting 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 boundary between the archaic and the future. Her steady rise in the Italian contemporary art scene is confirmed by an ever firmer presence in private collections and dynamic exhibition contexts.
