Lauren Cohen

Bio

Lauren Cohen lives and works in NY. She holds a BFA from California College of the Arts, San Francisco, and a master’s from Royal College of Art, London. In her work, she constructs an artistic universe where control, power, sexuality, and violence are recurring themes. The forming of “the other” within any given society is at the core of her research. Having grown up (and out) of Puritan New England, she connects historical events and characters to her own growth and development in order to form fictional mythologies.
