The first monograph devoted to the winner of the 2025 Manor Prize Geneva, this book documents the development of a practice that reinvents painting through assemblage and sculpture.
Introduced by Andrea Bellini and Lionel Bovier, it brings together a conversation between the artist and Fabrice Stroun as well as an essay by Julien Fronsacq, examining an approach that \"performs\" the image by restoring its physical density.
Drawing on modernist strategies (the grid, collage, chance) and movements such as Neo-Geo, Sarah Benslimane draws on DIY, leisure and consumer culture to establish a critical distance from the decorative and from abstraction. By transforming everyday materials and generic images into hybrid compositions, she lucidly questions our relationship with the world in the digital age.
This publication offers a fresh perspective on a body of work that, balancing factual observation and melancholy, renews our understanding of commodity and representation in contemporary art.
