She is involved in Performance Art, Installation Art, Artificial Intelligence, Programed computer-interaction. Through her art she develops social commentaries towards finding available tools to improve human social interactions.
"My work is a critique of the simultaneous technological and social systems we are building around ourselves. What are the rules, what happens when we introduce glitches? I create performances inviting viewers to engage. To remote control my dates. To be followed. To welcome me in as their human smart home. To attend a party hosted by artificial intelligence. In these interactions, there is a reciprocal risk taking and vulnerability, as performer and audience are both challenged to relinquish control, both implicated...Situated in everyday life, my projects have real life consequences. We are reminded of an urgent need to find a sense of agency."
