Awarded at the Florence and Rome biennales. Her work has been widely published and is part of relevant private collections and three museums. Starting in 2018, she began using photographic images as material to compose installations and three-dimensional art objects. Her recent production borders on rheology and uses organic photochemical processes to address the notions of the passage of time, transformation and the paradox of finitude.
