Sylvie Bonnot is part of Beyond the Frame : Rethinking Photography during EMOP Lux at Arendt House.
The EMOP Arendt Award, established in 2013, is a prestigious distinction for emerging visual artists who are recognised in honour of their exceptional artistic talent and evolving photographic practice. The 2025 edition's theme is "Rethinking Photography".
With her work, Sylvie Bonnot brings a tactile dimension to photography by engaging directly with the physical substance of images. She peels the gelatin layer from her photographs and applies it to various surfaces, creating what she calls “skins.” Inspired by nature, particularly forests, her sculptural, tactile works offer a new perspective on photography through a wide array of hybrid creations.
