Step into a world where towering figures f eel less like strangers and more like quiet companions. \;Gentle G iants \;presents a gathering of tall\, hand-formed characters who share the space with a calm\, watchful presence. Each giant stands as par t of a loose &ldquo\;family\,&rdquo\; connected not by a single story but by a shared spirit. Accompanying the giants are smaller\, lighter forms - suggestive of birds - scattered throughout the space. Together\, the figur es and birds create a gentle ecosystem\, one that feels alive but unhurrie d\, inviting viewers to pause and take it in. \;Gentle Giants \;offers an experience rooted in reassurance and imagination. It invi tes children and adults alike to encounter scale with ease\, to find frien dliness in the unfamiliar\, and to see how even the simplest materials can hold a sense of magic.
\nGentle Giants \;is a suspende d installation of collaged paper figures all created from black paper and painted fragments. Collage guides Cohen-Bacry's work as both technique and philosophy - embracing difference\, reclaiming discarded materials\, and building forms that feel vulnerable yet resilient.
