Her researches take place in the public space of Brussels. Originally, they were intended to help her discover a city she did not know, and since then, it has become the essence of her approach. She makes contextual work in link with the inhabitants and users of a location; encounters interest her more than anything else. She loves working in zones in mutation, wastelands, frontiers… Through a wide range of mediums: installations, in situ, ceramics, sculpture, publications, she focuses her interest on architecture, urban planning and the tales of the people she meets. Within the framework of residencies or workshops, she develops her artistic practice of plastic arts and continues to believe in the treasures of artistic awakening. Thinking and creating together.
