She has her own atelier
where she currently works.
Her early works with oil on canvas are mainly colourful paintings which
include some paper collages, where the texture modifies and gives structure to
the surface.
The recurrent themes of her works are on chance, found playing cards,
symbols and phenomena, which can be seen in her colour and black and white lithographies, as
well as in her Artist’s Book.
Paper is almost always present in her works not only as a base on which
she works, but as a means of expression and experimentation.
Her last works are on the
issue time, and refer to her ancestors. With two pinhole cameras made of
objects that were from her family, she took many photographies which she then turned
into lithographies by drawing or transferring on the surface of the million
year old stones, getting the quality that describes the passing of time like
blurriness, indefinition and scars.
