    Laurence Jenkell décline le Bonbon sous toutes ses formes. Ce simple objet de désir devient son sujet de prédilection et plus qu’un support, le bonbon interprété par Laurence Jenkell devient un “langage”.
    Un discours spécialiste dirait que sa sculpture bonbon est un geste radical issu du contenu sémantique du Pop Art et du Nouveau Réalisme. Un discours profane parlerait d’une gourmandise artistique qui délecte nos sens et qui par sa douceur évoquée permet de magnifier l’ensemble des sujets portés par ces bonbons.
    L’œuvre artistique de Laurence Jenkell s’inscrit dans une démarche intellectuelle et culturelle : le sujet du Bonbon alliant simplicité et universalité.

    Laurence Jenkell declined the Candy under all its forms. This simple object of desire became her subject of preference and more than a medium, the candy interpreted by Laurence Jenkell became a "language".
    A specialist speech would say that her candy sculpture is a radical gesture stemming from the semantic contents of Pop art and New Realism. A profane speech would speak about an artistic greed that delights our senses and evokes sweetness by glorifying all subjects carried by these candies.
    Laurence Jenkell's artistic works join in a thought and cultural process: the subject of the Candy allying simplicity and universality.
