STATEMENT
"I use the camera as a tool of creation and imagination.”
Since childhood, she has nurtured a deep passion for literature and art, which, combined with her studies in theater, fashion, and visual arts, influence her approach to photography pushing it beyond the boundaries of the traditional concept.
She rejects the pursuit of the "perfect moment" and eschews mere replication of the surrounding world to bring to life unique scenarios that cannot be seen elsewhere.
She creates images which cross several disciplines, photography, illustration, and painting, often infused with dreamlike atmospheres.

A significant portion of her work is produced in a photography studio, where the empty space represents to her what a blank canvas would be to a painter: infinite creative possibilities.
Multidisciplinarity is a keyword in her work, as she combines several means of artistic expression: photography, fashion, artistic installation, and theatrical performance. She blends different languages to explore contemporary themes in a conceptual, creative, and unique manner.
