Using diverse media and materials, she has created objects and installations art that captures the viewer’s attention with a sense of everyday familiarity, and turns it to the intriguing duality of our world: the sacred and the profane, humor and terror, love and sadness, the superficial and what lies beneath. The strange yet wonderful world expressed in her art will overwhelm you. |
