Exaggerated bodies, long limbs, and striking faces give them a strong and confident presence. Large eyes, accentuated lips, and bold colors make the figures particularly expressive. In her sculptures as well, Bach engages deeply with the female figure. She works with materials such as bronze, ceramics, and Murano glass. Her sculptures echo the characteristic forms of the women she paints: voluptuous bodies, accentuated feminine curves, and a self-assured posture. Thanks to their three-dimensionality, the figures have a physical presence and clearly occupy their space.      <\/p><p class=\"p1\">Bach is not concerned with creating a lifelike depiction. The figures are deliberately stylized and exaggerated. They embody strength, sensuality, joie de vivre, and self-determination, while also reflecting various facets of womanhood. Thus, her female figures\u2014in both painting and sculpture\u2014become an expression of her own lived experience.   <\/p><p class=\"p1\">1967\u20131970 Hadamar State School of Glass
