"With fine art I have the opportunity to have absolute freedom independent of space and time, human laws and political circumstances To create your own moments, worlds and perspectives at any time, to stay in the creative process, to be able to think with all your senses... I can't ignore this freedom, to open up to this is a must."

Since this awareness, she has approached painting and its techniques, photography and the multifaceted nature of art in an autodidactic manner.
