The artist's approach is to explore two classic themes of painting: colour and light. Her work corresponds to a basic concern of modern and contemporary painting: to offer a special perception to the eye indirectly as a medium. She provides evidence of the power of painting, i.e. to represent what the human lens or a camera is not able to experience in this way. The series The Light consists of works that approach the visualisation of light through the use of colour, on the borderline between absorbing light and shedding light, between attraction and radiance. In the interplay of colour and light, the viewer is also offered an experience of temperature.
Common her series in general is the use of so-called Témoins (witnesses), which she adds to the main pictures as remarks and combines both into diptychs. On these Témoins she leaves behind brush strokes and impressions, which occur as a by-product of the painting process. At the same time they provide information about the preparation of the colours for the respective picture on the palette.
The series was created in 2020, in a time of seclusion of the artist in her studio. They are documents of the exploration of her individual, perceiving gaze, her close-up view through her studio windows which gave the works their dimensions.
