Her installations, sculpture, sound and video works are devised by strategies in which materiality, site-specific navigation and objective research methods are woven together through a personal, subjective experience of contemporary alchemy. Her projects develop as investigations of physical and ideological properties of the raw materials that form the basis of human existence: from origins deep in the earth, to the extraction, transformation and global exploitation.
