Barbara Dohrn

I'm an multi-media artist and writer. As an artist I have a particular interest in painting, sculpturing and photography. As an artist I try to put the stories that are in my head into pictures. When sculpturing I try to convert my feelings into a visible, abstract form. In the past couple of years I have tried to express my stroies through photography and photomontages. Digital compositions are one of my favourite forms of art through which I can tell the stories of my imagination. I do this in two ways. Sometimes I combine pictures taken by myself with old family photos in order to create a new story. Other times I insert images of dolls and combine them with pictures taken by me through they can become alive in a new story created by me.

I moved to Berlin to study art at the Hochschule der Kuenste (University of Art Berlin). Since my graduation I was a member of the Berufsverband Bildender Kuenstler (Professional Association of Berlin Artists).
