Antoine Bonsorte

Antoine’s Beloved Community and Family

(Please allow Anael, Gabe and the family to have space to process the shock and grief that comes with this horribly sad time. They will reach out when they have their feet back on the ground.)

I am writing you with a heart full of sadness from the tragic loss of our soulful, beauty-creating, community-gathering, loving father, brother, friend and soul family member Antoine Bonsorte.

The pain and heaviness from his sudden departure is counterweighted by the amount of beauty he left behind; two amazing sons, Anael and Gabriel, countless stunning and vivid photo and video memoirs from his colorful life, excellent art installations, beautiful music and loads of glorious memories he shared with us from all over the world.

Antoine focused on beauty throughout his life and his joy of bringing people and art together wherever he traveled. He was a real butterfly, here today, gone on to the next flower in a flash of an eye.

Maybe that’s how he wanted to depart this realm, just like a shooting star.

I’m so grateful the pieces aligned for him to have been living the reality of his long time dreams in Costa Rica, co-creating an arts and culture community center with his beloved boys Anael and Gabe by his side. They made beauty together and many were able to enjoy it.

Still, many will continue enjoying the beautiful works of art that Antoine created. His love and incredible artistic expression permeates our space and transcends time, eternally present in our universe.

Please go to the gofundme to help support putting together a memorial for Antoine as well as help with the expenses to tie up the loose ends that he left behind.

Also, Anael is asking for any videos, photos, music or even writings that you may have of Antoine’s to be shared with him, for now send an email to starryeyedjewels@gmail.com if you have any, and instructions will be shared.

For now please feel free to leave a message, photos and videos, stories of Antoine on this memorial site so we can share our collective love with his beloved sons and family. Love and Graceful Power 🤍🕊️💙💔
