Tetrapod Gallery is delighted to present the debut exhibition of sculptures and paintings by Eliana “Bear” Ben-Dov, titled Abeyance.

This exhibition explores intimate personal narratives within miniature living spaces, interconnecting color, memory, and environmental influences to delve into the deep emotional resonance these elements have on individuals. Bear’s enduring passions for travel, interior design, and curating experiences have intricately guided her exploration of the nuanced concepts of home and how they shape and mirror one’s identity.

Eliana Ben-Dov, also known as “Bear,” (b. 1999), was raised in New York and relocated to Los Angeles in 2020. Bear graduated with a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2023.
