In her work there is a constant tension between the analogical and the digital, the handcraft and the technology where the searches indicate a reflection on the gaze and the mismatches or crossovers between what is real and what is manipulated. Her main reference is the landscape and its representation in the history of art; In her ways of tying visual stories, she configures montages that update beauty in less ideal conditions than the classical notion. In her work, she reflects on the experiential aspect of nature in the territory and raises the possibility of creating our own landscape through personal stories. Her work receives numerous awards and she actively participates in individual and group exhibitions in Argentina and abroad, she is also part of private and public, national and international collections.
