Achilles adonon BENIN

Achille Adonon, born in 1987, is an artist originally from Benin. His paintings, sculptures and performances explore the concept of identity and anonymity of existence using shoes as a means of artistic and human expression. The shoes metaphorically represent the abandoned children he rescues and cares for so that he can offer them a new life in a world where they can express themselves freely. Adonon transforms recycled materials into works that deal with the primitive aspect of human beings, offering a unique interpretation of everyday life.
