Statement
She conceives her works as narratives or stories. She creates intersections between various audiovisual, photographic, sculptural, and installation techniques. Her projects explore the transformations of the body and the landscape through contact with different otherness and technologies. She seeks to highlight the sociocultural, technological, magical, and paranormal dialogues that inhabit urban environments. She reflects on the development of life and spirituality mediated by technology and media communication.
