The sprawling cosmos of Dortmund artist Barbara Koch zooms viewers into a magical world of her own. Koch uses media such as painting, sculpture, and installations and trained at renowned art schools such as the University of Applied Sciences in Dortmund and the Accademia di Belle Arti in Milan. Her distinctive style, characterized by a professional and conscious approach to her chosen visual language, focuses on the classic casting of abstract-figurative formations, incorporating initial drawings, models, and ultimately silicone elements into the creative process.
The biomorphic formations, often made of silicone, seem to exude a toxic beauty. The works are typically multi-partite, evoking associations with swarms, lichens, and fungi, as well as imaginative magnifications of microcosmic phenomena and flourishing, intact underwater worlds.
