Cartoon-like figures are depicted in unconventional proportions that convey an air of mischievousness. The works have a whimsical undertone that shows a balance between abstraction and physicality.

The absent background, accentuated by splashes of colour, supports the playful simplicity of the works. These collages’ visually simple style shows a dynamic interplay of lines, textures and cut-out shapes combined with fine contours that are sometimes slightly faded and uneven. A limited and repetitive colour palette includes pink, orange and blue. A limited and repetitive colour palette includes pink, orange and blue.

The depicted and abstracted protagonists include humans, albeit without recognisable facial features, and other unidentifiable beings. Their poses do not conform to the conventions of a pre-existing anatomy and are sublimated by simple landscapes with objects of uncertain origin or destination. These elements seem to float without direct connection, creating a sense of fragmentation or surreal dislocation. Her practice’s thematic focus is characterised by the exploration of concepts of femininity, nature and the notion of an existing connection with the natural world.
