Through my Eyes

Barbara Armbruster’s work focuses on a cross-cultural approach. Using the various media and means of expression of drawing, painting and spatial installation, she explores an intercultural context between East and West, Orient and Occident, in the sense of an exchange and dialogue between cultural circles and societies, tradition and modernity, history and the present”. (Dr. Andreas Gabelmann) “. . . And so, in her paintings and graphite drawings, some of which are in large format, a complex and relational structure not only opens up to the viewer between the pictorial techniques, materials, motifs and themes, but above all also between Eastern, Arabic cultures and Western perspectives, between visual languages and forms of perception, living spaces and epochs.(Dr. Gabelmann) In the paintings realised on MDF board, ornamental elements of different cultures, epochs are combined with black acrylic paint. In the second step, I dissolve the recognisability by painting over it with white, coloured acrylic paint. (BA)
