Model, entrepreneur, author and chef.

Born in 1983, Julien Bonnin is a French photographer living in Paris and working between Paris and London His main field of work is photoreport, starting as a freelance in Paris from 2004-2007, in the dawn of social unrest and the Presidential. In 2008 he travelled to Palestine, working for an NGO on the field. It shaped his practice, based on the unconventional clash between traditional documentary and discursive paths of fine art or site based installations. His work explores the codes and the physical nature of Photography as a bearer of Truth, in the scope of new technologies.It analyses the concept of Power and the tensions arising from 'signified' photographs in the midst of mass medias or digital photography. He graduated with a Ba Photography from the London College of Communication in 2012 and an Ma in Photography from the Royal College of Art in 2016. Recipient of the Photoworks award and New Bloomberg Contemporaries in 2012 ,he has since exhibited both in Europe and internationally.

My work is an ongoing exploration across media, ranges from performance, drawing, painting, and photography. In my artistic practice, I contemplate about the role of materials,  various media, the body, and performative elements in the process of mark making gestures. I am interested in expressing ideas about how the notion of identity, displacement, and memory are held in the body.  I develop performative methods that break down boundaries between various disciplines. Through Inter-media performative practice, I incorporate the body as a material, object, and subject. I utilize the camera as a tool to capture and record my studio and staged performances, as well as activating time, space and light with body movement.
  I'm interested in the complexity of performative documentation, and the potential of both traditional and new advanced media in these representations. 

Nothing comes to mind right now.

I am also the co-founder of Creative People in Florence, an international community of artists, designers, artisans, and creative thinkers with the aim of fostering collaboration, promoting our members’ projects, and activating the contemporary arts in Florence.
