Her work revolves around the idea of inhabiting and the relationships we establish with the environment and the multiple lives that make it up. To shift the anthropocentric focus in order to try to have an impact from other angles. To find what is subversive in collective thinking, to make from what is nearby in order to rethink what is established and to open up the question, to leave room for doubt.
