Her research centers on the expanded drawing process and the phenomenology of artistic joy, examining drawing as a lifelong journey while bridging conceptual art, 3D visualization, and subliminal communication. She actively investigates heritage art through interdisciplinary lenses, particularly monastic artistic traditions and their contemporary reinterpretations.

Recent works demonstrate evolving focus from technical fundamentals to experiential and contemplative aspects of artistic creation.
