This is mine —

La maison XV belongs to the series “La maison”. A large snow-covered roof, reduced to an almost abstract white plane, rests on a dark band of wood and brown earth; a black opening, barely drawn, is enough to make the house exist.

As often in Sébastien Bonin's work, the motif returns from one painting to the next. Repetition here is not copying: it is the way the forms of rural architecture are handed down, replayed and kept alive, without nostalgia.
