Robert Cohen takes traditional modernist abstract ideas as a cue, but interweaves ingredients which relate more to contemporary visual culture.

His work begins to suggests ideas about a visual language for the 21st century.

Much of Robert Cohen's artwork can be regarded as two dimensional investigations which are a precursor to three dimensional architectural, interior, and furniture manifestations.

Robert utilises a wide range of different software in the production of his artwork. He has developed various rule systems, which allow him to produce work which is highly experimental and unpredictable.
