BIO

German-born Karin Barr moved to rural Waikato in 1994 and discovered her passion for stone carving at the 2003 Matamata Sculpture Symposium. She later expanded into glass casting, studying at Art Station in Auckland and attending international master classes to refine her skills. Karin’s work is held The Arts House Trust and private collections globally, with regular exhibitions in New Zealand, Australia and Germany. Her studio is located on a farm in Tauhei.

Karin's glass sculptures emphasise contrast, light and colour, often featuring simple forms and bold lines influenced by the Bauhaus Movement. Her installations frequently respond to specific sites and environmental themes.
