Yvette Cohen

I draw and I paint but I think sculpturally shaping the perception of space. I feel the volume and depth of my shapes. The shapes are canvas under wooden dowels, or simply canvas pieces, that mount flat on the wall. There are no boundaries. The space surrounding the pieces is no less important than the pieces themselves. Pieces float in space. I work with the tension between geometric and organic, volume and flat. This tension, like life, is full of contradictions. In this world of contradictions, I strive to find a balance.
