Figurative
The energy that surrounds us, ultimately fuses together the passage of our experiences. Fusing the feelings and emotions of the artist with those of the images represents a moment in time. Working from live models since the age of 13, the artist, Laura Cohen-Hogan, sees the figure as an organic shape, much as a pear or flower, to be arranged into a balanced, inviting, and pleasing composition. Her goal is to discover an arrangement of individual figures that evolve into an organic state of harmony and understanding.
