With an attentive look at the idea of failed encounters, her practice undertakes an exhaustive journey into this notion in trying to understand which objects and spaces men usually use to search something that in reality can never be found. This melancholic and frustrating state, cased by men impossibility to know the past, is what fascinates her, and it constitutes the foundation of her work.
