Ann-Margreth Bohl
Sculptor
I am a self-taught artist with over 20 years’ experience. Along the way I’ve learned much through collaborations with sculptors, artists, stone masons, musicians, technologists and thought-provoking passers-by, using a variety of media.
I am currently exploring light, shadow, projection and perspective in spaces real and imagined, through installation, drawing, lettering and sculpture.
