Esther L Cohen
email: estherlcohen9@gmail.com
Born 2000 in Boston, USA
Esther L Cohen b. 2000 in Boston, Massachusetts is currently based in Los Angeles, California. Cohen experiments with inorganic and anthropomorphic materials, envisioning channels to the divine within the highly technological modern era. In her most recent work, Cohen crochets wire into undulating metal tubes sprouting artificial hair. Porous in nature, these materials and their suspension in space evoke the sometimes absurd yet deeply auspicious function of the body as a tangible vessel for the soul.
