Dror
Cohen
New York based artist and illustrator, Dror Cohen, creates tableau-like scenes and moods in gouache. Her vivid use of colour and unique eye for movement and story telling result in beautiful moments as though paused in time, inspired by theatre, dance and drama. Dror's work lends itself to all sorts of outputs, from editorial publishing to branding, fashion, culture and much more. Clients include The New Yorker, Port Magazine, WeTransfer and The Washington Post amongst others.
"
My scenes tend to be naturalistic, but then I might use certain clothes like costumes, or use repetitions, exaggerated gestures, or environments that are arranged like a set. This makes the scene less grounded, and more reminiscent of a play.
"
I often use dancers as a reference for a character - even when there is no dancing in the scene. It’s because they are so good at expressing a certain mood with their body
"
I try to approach painting still life the same way I would paint people. Both objects and people have the same role in setting the atmosphere of a painting and telling a specific story.
