For her work on contemporary landscape, she has repeatedly been awarded prizes and grants: 2021 with a working grant from the Stiftung Kunstfonds Bonn, a project grant NEUSTART KULTUR from the BBK Bundesverband Berlin and the Beauftragte of the Bundesregierung for Culture and Media, Berlin, the Pfalzpreis for Fine Arts in the categorie of Painting 2018 and the Wilhelm–Morgner–Preis in the category of Painting 2016.
She regularly exhibits in national and international museums, galleries, art associations and art ...
