Justine Bonnin

Inspired by Manea, Greek goddess personifying insanity and madness, I make these pieces a symbolic union, a way to embrace her.  Corrosion is, for me, the materialization of a fragile sensibility. Simultaneously febrile and in perpetual mutation, the rust reveal is shades with time. Riveted on silver structures who support it, it become the precious matter. If by my pieces I address myself to Manea, but should you have already understood it, it’s also you that I aim for.
