She explores in her paintings the distortion of reality through water, depicting bodies and objects submerged in its transparency and refraction. In her most recent work, Motion Sickness, she combines chance with a fixed structure to merge scenes from different times and places within her own archive, creating a liquid abstraction that questions perception and the human mind. Her works suggest that reality is always mediated by a “veil” that distorts our vision, such as water or memories.
