Addyson Bonner is a French American artist who makes figurative soft sculptures and wearables.

As an artist with a background in illustration Bonner uses his knowledge in children's book illustration to create identifiable recurring characters and display through them common experiences with anxiety, autism and childhood.

His sculpture's designs explore animal symbolism or early internet imagery he encountered as a child, and work as self portraits. In doing so Bonner encapsulates the experiences of others who chased after characters to understand themselves and their identities.

Addyson Bonner is currently studying for a BFA at the School of Art Institute of Chicago with focus on Fiber and Fashion. He has participated in group shows at Mana Contemporary and SAIC galleries.
