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 works testify to deep experimentation with terracotta and glazed ceramic, where ancestral forms — such as the figure of the bull or the carp — are reinterpreted through low-poly geometries or expres­sionist shapes full of dynamism. Her stylistic signature stands out for the deft use of color-changing cold patinas and glassy 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 viewers to reflect on the boundary between the archaic and the future. Her ongoing ascent in the Italian contemporary art scene is confirmed by an ever more solid presence in private collections and dynamic exhibition contexts."
