Barbara Beisinghoff (Rhoden)

Barbara Beisinghoff scratches, etches and drills through surfaces. The color in the deep lines of her etching plates is printed. She creates perforated copper roofs or canopies. When you walk through the gates with the day light above you see patterns envisioning star clusters of a night sky. Her watermarks and waterjet drawing reveal their beauty against the light
