About The Artwork

Hi, The painting was a central painting in a solo exhibition I had this year, 2017, in Tel Aviv. The painting was painted in the best colors to be obtained, and on a canvas of type 1 for Franks. The painting is from canvas and is ready for hanging. (The painting is a project of a year, of which 4 months of intensive work on it, only)I drive in his paintings is to grasp truth and let go. Letting the painting expose the whole of the soul rather than the visible. After spending long spans of time in the landscape I brings with me into the studio dozens of testimony-drawings that form the outline to his paintings. Odem forest, real locations I likens the interaction between Me and nature and art as mud games: rubbing, splashing and wallowing in the substance beside feelings of joy, passion and catharsis. The physicality of the oil paint, smooth stretched sheets of canvas and fine brushes make the awaited dialogue possible. Paint which is an entity, becomes through rhythmical brushstrokes thousands of dense lines of information pertaining to the growing distance between reality and artmaking. On the canvas, not a single spot is left unpainted. The thicker the paint layers the more the physicality between me and nature vanishes and the intimacy between me and nature materialize.

Zohar Cohen, born in 1969, is a painter who creates large canvases of color that are connected by a color vibration that exists between one stroke of paint and another. He uses small, dense strokes of color to create layers of light and mood. Zohar hints at the sources of his work through the names of the pieces, such as the Kigali series which he started during his stay in Rwanda. Zohar's journey begins with a pictorial idea based on a geographical location. He observes lines and spots created directly on the canvas. The main idea is preserved in the studio, but there is a process of disconnection from the geographical place, and while destroying and neutralizing something else is created. The viewer can experience the painting in two ways. They can focus on molecular units, like looking through a microscope at items that form a uniform, sensual, and abstract fabric. Alternatively, they can observe from a distance and experience a struggle. Zohar's harmonious coloring is calculated in an almost scientific way, where dots, lines, painted stripes, everything is woven into the fabric of the painting, creating a uniform work of art that is linked deeply to reality. Over the years, Zohar created a series of interiors, in which there is a figure in the room, like a sort of focal point, with ripples of color bursting from the outside and disturbing the inside of the painting
