Central to her work is the continuously shifting relationship between people, time and memory.By exploring themes such as longing, loss, rituals, and repetition, she approaches her subjects as echoes from the past. In this way she reconstructs moments that are no longer physically present. By placing these elements in a new spatial and temporal context, she blurs the boundaries between past and…
