Sandra Cohen
"I'm not here 2", abstract, blue, green, yellow, Mona Lisa, acrylic painting

2018

About the Item

Sandra Cohen’s “I’m not here (2)” is a 10 x 10 x 1 inch acrylic painting on cradled wood, in green, blue, and yellow. An experiment in abstraction based on “The Mona Lisa”, the iconic figure is loosely outlined in red over a verdant background. There is a faint pearlescent glow from within the figure when seen at an angle. This painting is unframed, signed on the back with bright blue painted sides. Sandra Cohen’s dreamlike painting and mixed media work explores the paradoxical nature she finds everywhere. Cohen layers a constantly shifting ground of memory with snippets of lyrics, invasive ‘earworms’, and the human tendency to create order from chaos. Music is intimately entwined with memory for Cohen, who has been a performing musician and songwriter. She also has a deep interest in science, especially the concepts of modern physics. Using techniques that vary from wet to dry and tight to loose, and processes that may weave between digital and tactile, the act of creating the work also reflects what she hopes emerges: glimpses of a true/false spectrum wavering into being as lustrous, rhythmic, and often darkly humorous hybrids. Cohen is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.
