Using different mediums such as photography, installation and fashion design, she’s mainly working on the concept of identity, her own experience and the communities that are important for her. Deeply conscious of the state of our world today there is a militant approach in her work, in a way that tend to focus on escaping reality and creating her own in order to talk about our world’s present and past issues.

Realness is a self-portrait project, this fantasized metaphorical journey expresses my doubts and indecisions about increasingly conscious identity questions. Inspired by the spiritual, social and political place of gender non-conforming people throughout history and my own experience, trying to reconnect with my true self. I created this new world, a place where I don't need to identify myself. Where I'm not afraid of being judged, where I’m not afraid of others. Where I don't feel fear, far from this binary model. That world is safe. Built on the memories of those who, before me, also simply wanted to live their lives in an authentic way, without wondering if the next day would be their last.
