Mit dem Gedanken spielen

More about the book

The Hamburg artist Barbara Schmidt Heins draws upon the source of words circulating in everyday life, which in her works on paper are charged with multi-layered meanings. In her compositions, the mass-medial fragments of language receive autonomy and poetic depth. The formally reduced verbal ready-mades integrated in formally reduced architecturally constructive pictorial spaces act as catalysts for new interpretations in the minds of the recipients.
