Visual artist, anthropologist and filmmaker. Her artistic practice is primarily centred on non-fiction and experimental film. She creates films and audiovisual works that are also presented in installation settings, in which she blends past and present, poetry and essay, narrative and abstraction, reality and fiction. She works with images, sounds and texts, using materials drawn from various archives: photographs, films, videos, texts, documents and other found objects that form a fundamental part of the fabric shaping her projects. Her practice explores the creative and ethical possibilities offered by the reuse of found materials in art, viewing the recycling and interweaving of these materials as a gesture that is both creative and political.
