In her works, she focuses on images of the natural world and the body (anatomy), which we can accept as the product of an analytical and rational ideology. By looking at them with an artistic eye, she proposes a new way of perception. It distorts, mixes, replaces and intertwines the images of the body (inside) with the images of nature (outside). She disconnects them from the rational attitude of the rational visual order and reveals a strange nature.
