#2 Laurence Jenkell’s Art Piece

$29,000.00

LAURENCE JENKELL,
BONBON DRAGON
ROUGE ET NOIR, NO. 1191



Jenkell’s entire oeuvre is a phenomenon of crystallisation towards materialised desire into an object. The candy itself either desire, object or pleasure reminding feelings of sweet childlike memories and attracting our senses as bees are attracted to honey. The object transmuted into another object: the Jenkell’s wrappings! Indeed, the artist developed a new technique, “jenkellising”, any object just by draping and twisting plexiglass into a wrapped candy.
