Statement
Her main activity is painting, with strong gestual character and abstraction of the figure. Multimedia artist, work with VÍDEOARTE, employs PHOTOGRAPHY as a "motto" to bring a new concept of SPACE/TIME in her paintings. The use of overlapping images of photos made by the artist, creates on the screen complex spatialities, which are worked with pictorial notions such as landscape, color, line, light, shape, depth, volume, etc., generating a new and rich scenery.
