From 2010 her sculpture “Travelers” was accepted by Curators of Museum Yad Vashem, Jerusalem, Israel, to be a part of international permanent collection in the Museum.
As a successor of family of Holocaust survivors she is devoted to revival of themes in intellectually liberated manner, transforming the anxiety of nature and a terror of the theme into sophisticated material of art, which pure and innocent yet bears an attractive stamp of mystery of world long forgotten.
