Influenced by diverse encounters, notably within the visual arts and music scene, since the 1990s, she has been developing an alternative, cross-sectional approach to gesture and creation. She works and performs with different groups of artists, regularly participates in collaborative projects and since 1998 has been involved in the creation of personal forms. She produces mainly in the visual and choreographic performance domain, which also gives her the opportunity to develop photographic and audio-visual work, notably in collaboration with the multi-media artist, Bernard Tran. Since 2009, they have signed several different projects together.
