Barbara Penn
|
|
|
Über lange Jahre arbeitete die Künstlerin an Installationen und Bildern, die Fundstücke aus dem Alltag und nicht alltägliches zusammen fügten. Inspiriert durch die intensive Beschäftigung mit dem poetischen Werk von Emily Dickinson. Die neuesten Arbeiten von Barbara Penn zeigen sie in veränderter Ausdrucksweise. Politische und sozialkritische Themen sind dominant. Dabei wurde der Malträger Leinwand durch die PVC-Plane ersetzt.
