Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a weathered and rusted metal box or cabinet encased in a vibrant red and black tartan fabric frame. The composition emphasizes the interplay of textures and materials, juxtaposing the industrial, aged quality of the metal with the softness and pattern of the fabric. The overall impression is one of decay and disrepair, yet the bold colors and framing suggest a deliberate and intentional artistic approach. The work likely comments on themes of impermanence, the passage of time, and the intersection of the natural and man-made world. The artist's intention may be to challenge the viewer's perception of ordinary objects and materials through this unique sculptural assemblage. ...

B.1991

Repurposing discarded everyday materials such as wood, steel, fabric and aluminium, sculptor Erwan Sene binds these materials using bright paints, weaving oddly familiar domestic scenes or conceiving completely unrecognisable, otherworldly forms. Cabinets are taken apart and reborn as miniature model homes. The engineering of objects is revealed as they are turned inside out, softened with draped fabric, or their surfaces softly spray painted. His work as a musician undoubtedly feeds his sculptures, giving them accents and flows, mimicking melodies, or discordant rhythms. In a heady oeuvre, Sene brings together technical aspects of Surrealism and Dada, merging these influences with a Baroque theatricality to create forms drenched in a sense of the uncanny and dystopia. Sene cites his interest in science fiction, which can readily be seen in the neon hues and supernatural structures of his pieces. Other topics regularly explored in his practice include contamination, idiopathy and digital cultures. ...

Toronto

Conditions began as Bonny Poon in 2017, Paris. Located on the 26th floor of a brutalist residential tower in the 13e, the gallery was co-founded by Nathaniel Monjaret (Marbriers 4, Geneva) and artist Bonny Poon. Since 2023, the gallery is known as Conditions and is based out of Toronto’s Chinatown, while operating internationally. From the outset, Bonny Poon has striven to highlight the conditions that make art—from its production to sale—possible. Beyond the art on display, we foreground the history of our artists' attitudes, positions, and networks. We have presented the Parisian and Canadian debut of many intergenerational artists and cultural figures, emerging and established. As a gallery and an auto-fiction, we support transgressive artists and critical experiments. We mine the backstage, backroom working relations that unfold between our artists, clients, critics, and dealers—a parade of economic reality, a lasting dream of community. ...
