Her artwork combines neon with textiles, concrete, and porcelain, creating tension between conceptual weight and visual lightness. The 2016-2020 artworks demonstrate consistent exploration of material contradictions and spatial dynamics. Recent works like À Toutes les Gloires de la France incorporate geolocation and political commentary, while pieces like Far Flung II explore kinetic elements in sculpture.
