Her practice and research operate at the intersection of feminism and world-building to offer audiences opportunities to image the world otherwise. She works across installation, sound, drawing and sculpture and ASMR to engage audiences. Her current research, Teratoma/Terror Incognita, has provoked a series of different proposals, works and texts exploring embodied glitches and ruptures as sites for agency and possibility.
