Last fall, we reached out to Sedona Cohen to document her practice. Since we couldn’t travel to film it ourselves, Sedona and her partner, Orion Eshel, helped by documenting her journey over three months. Today we are excited to share our newest film, a 17-minute documentary featuring Los Angeles-based artist Sedona Cohen.

The story begins in New York City in October 2025, where we first meet Sedona as she works on a hand-carved seashell panel. Joined by her partner Orion, who also served as cinematographer, she soon returns to Los Angeles and her studio at Mohlief Studios, where we spend several days observing her process. The seashell carving, first started in New York, continues to evolve throughout the film. In Los Angeles, we watch as Sedona paints the piece and reflects on her practice. Working in oil on canvas and hand-carved MDF panels, she creates symbols that emerge organically over time. For Sedona, the works inside her studio are in constant conversation with one another—even when she is not there. Paintings become companions, and meaning develops through their relationships.
