She makes objects, books , collages, photographs and videos.
A multitasking temperament and wandering eye is currently
driving projects inside and outside of the studio that include
Furnishings: a (re)creation of
objects/displays from the domestic sphere in an exploration of the anthropology/archaeology of home,
+
One Dollar: a photographic and installation project that investigates the production and commodification of identity in the American psyche
through photographs, purchases, and writings gathered in the dollar store
