Most part of her works are painted with mixed media on canvas. Her pictures, grafics and objects deal with essential human affairs. All forms of her artistic work have one thing in common - the interest in dialog. Sometimes it inheres in the picture itself and sometimes it is reflected by the outer form. Thus, either two pictures go together in a dialog, or one image responds to a short text, which is delicately placed in the picture itself.
