designs and fluorescent and glow-in-the-dark colours, mixing her two main interests that created her most-known art pieces. By applying complex painting techniques and a wide range of colors and pigments, she creates a starry atmosphere, visually opening up confined spaces, usually applying a three-dimensional effect in the daylight as well as in the dark or under UV light.

Other Interests

In addition to unique wall and body painting, her current pursuits include ceramic designs and an in-depth approach to questions of consciousness and existence.
