בתערוכת היחיד הראשונה שלו בישראל מציג טובי כהן, צלם ממוצא בריטי, סדרת צילומים פנוראמיים גדולי ממדים, המתחקים אחר זהותו היהודית, ומתארים את מסעותיו בנבכי היהדות העכשווית- מתורת הלחימה היהודית של האבי"ר, למסעות רוחניים באומן בחברת חסידי ברסלב ועד למתיישבים בתקוע- את כולם הוא מתעד ומביים בסצנות של ריחוף וריקוד.
לכל אחד משבעת הצילומים המוצגים בתערוכה יש סיפור משלו- כך למשל הסוכה המעופפת שבנה כהן לאחר עיון ב"הלכות סוכה" כשרה, או לוחם האבי"ר שאליו הצטרף למסע עלייה לקברו של הבעל שם טוב באוקריאנה.
שם התערוכה ניתן לו על שם הכרובים והמלאכים, יצורים מיתולוגיים היברידיים, המתוארים בתנ"ך כמי שחוצצים בין האדם לאל. על ידי הבאת מושאי צילומיו לידי ריחוף באוויר כהן מעלה אותם למעשה לשיאים של התעלות רוחנית ושל ניתוק מהגשמיות.

In his first one man show in Israel, Toby Cohen, a British born photographer, presents a series of large scale panoramic photographs that trace his Jewish identity, and document his journey in the obscurity of contemporary Judaism. From the Jewish martial arts of the “Abir”, via spiritual journeys in Uman with the Hassidic Breslav, to the Tkoa settlers – Cohen documents and turns them into flying and dancing scenes.
All the seven photographs displayed in this exhibition have a story of their own. For example, the flying Sukkah built by Cohen after studying the rules of a Kosher Sukkah, or the “Abir” warrior with whom he visited the Habaal Shem Tov's grave in Ukraine.
The name of the exhibition, “Cherubim and Angels”, is inspired by the mythic hybrid creatures who are described in the Old Testament as being between man and god. By depicting his photographic subjects as flying objects, Cohen actually elevates them to a climax of spiritual sublimity, detached from the tangible.
