“Forever…” is a hanging sculpture that pays homage to the legendary Bob Dylan. This artwork combines the power of lyrics with the art of sculpting. Using the profound words from Dylan’s iconic song “Forever Young,” the sculpture brings his image to life through an interplay of embossing and recessing the lyrics. The result is a three dimensional representation of Dylan’s face, crafted with depth and detail.
The name “Forever…” symbolizes my admiration for Dylan’s creative longevity, relentless passion, and creative spirit, which serve as a source of inspiration.
AvRaam (Avraham) Cohen (b. 1968, Tel Aviv) attended university both in Holon, Israel and Brooklyn, NY for Industrial Design. While studying for his Masters at Pratt Institute, Cohen had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects in Gaetano Pesce’s studio in NY, where he gained experience working with cold casting techniques and was exposed to a variety of materials.
In 1998, Cohen founded his design and engineering firm, Vertex Product Development Inc. in Great Neck, NY. After years of working with clients developing new products and innovations, his passion for creating art reignited. Cohen is combining his industrial design and manufacturing techniques with his earlier experiences of sculpting, casting, and free-form modeling into his artwork.
