Her project focuses on the creation of dioramas and miniatures, drawing inspiration from contemporary artists who have explored domesticity, space and memory through this medium. Dioramas, as an artistic tool, offer a unique platform for reflecting on the use of art as a means to convey hidden details and complex narratives.
The starting point of this project is the work of several creators who approach the theme of the miniature as part of their artistic practice, such as Amy Bennett, Do Ho Suh, and James Casebere, highlighting the role of the forensic scientist Frances Glessner and her Nutshell Studies.
