She studied at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design and at Chelsea College of Art and Design. Her crossed media work comprises: site-specific light installation, animation, text, video and photography, which, she creates mainly as abstract optical illusions. These optical illusions concern the spiritual in art that she delves into by making concept parallels between literature, religion and science. Using these perceptions she searches for spiritual/psychological states of consciousness and relates them to cycles of individual or universal growth. Geometry, symbology and colour being the basis of her work are explored in a semiotic process of building, photographing and animating these “signs” that she understands as imprinted forms of consciousness that enable us to see, hear, speak and feel aesthetically.view less
