Her pictorial practice investigates visual representation through a process‑driven approach to sketching and the use of historical painting techniques. The studio work prioritizes line, chromatic value, and materiality, exploring how procedural gestures and traditional methods inform contemporary pictorial outcomes. Her theoretical research weaves together iconology, art history, and aesthetics, with a particular focus on the religious image and its symbolic function within cultural traditions. This research situates studio practice within broader historical and interpretive frameworks, examining how images operate as carriers of meaning in ritual and cultural contexts.
