Most of the current work is conceptual and several series are quite minimalist. Something that has caught my attention from the beginning is the material, how it reacts in different situations and what I can do with it, what can I say through it.

I used black, white, and smoky color in primary shapes and figures for a while. As the time went by, I began to incorporate ovoid figures because they remind me of something vital. I also use them as a base where I add shapes made in other techniques. My interest in that is in the dialogue between them because through the different reaction of the material new meanings emerge.

In recent years and driven by my interest in that, I have been working on the issue of migration and identity. I found the figure of a foot as an icon that, from my point of view, represents this theme the better. 

I am currently working on multi-foot installations, and in some cases I use the same foot repeated several times and in others they are different.

Mi trabajo en general es conceptual y en muchas series casi minimalista. Desde un principio me interesó especialmente la materia y su comportamiento y lo que a través de esos soportes podría transmitir.

Por mucho tiempo solo utilicé para mis obras los blancos, los negros y ahumados sobre formas escultóricas muy primarias.

Luego incorpore las formas ovoides ya que me remiten a lo vital y que puedo utilizar como soporte para numerosas técnicas que generan a su vez discursos bien diversos  

En los últimos años, preocupada por el tema de las migraciones y la identidad incorpore como soporte zapatos o pequeños piecitos que generalmente conforman instalaciones que expresan esa temática.
