statement
Cross-border artist specialized in photography with explorations in installation, she takes from cinema, literature and contemporary art elements such as narrative and staging for the construction of her works. She is interested in questioning and reconstructing the concept of identity towards the absurd through explorations on gender performativity in relation to a cross-border territory, socio-cultural markers around sexuality and the nodes between the private and the public of inhabiting a body in a specific time and space.
