I am interested in the possibilities of my body and observe its relationship with time and space. I use both cutsom made and mundane, everyday objects to create pieces where the objects are taken out of their regular context and given a new meaning.
The range of topics I deal with can vary, however there is always a connection to my own every day life and how I experience society. As a result, my works often bridge absurdity and poetry.

Since 2016 she is working on the ongoing project "Route of Roots" exploring the sense of belonging, combining geometrical forms together with natural and organic elements.
