Honsberger is also a partner in the Jordan Art Gallery, in Jordon from 2003 – current. She has participated in numerous workshops and her work can be found in public and private collections. Honsberger is known for her installation explorations of Space and Spirit – sculptures of steel rods, handmade paperpulp, wire and space, colourful works of harmony and balance that dance in space. Recently she has self published 48 booklets of poetry musings, coupled with colourful imagery; they are extensions of her space sculptures and echo the beauty, wonder, and mystery of our common experience. |
