"It is never completely possible to trace the source of our emotions, they are elusive, they are woven into each other like melodies in a piece of polyphonic music. The challenge is to find harmony and beauty even in dissonance. I guess my aspiration is to make the hidden ambiguity of our feelings more apparent so that one can touch it and feel its texture. "

Searching for the ideal medium for her creative aspirations she has moved from painting to dance and finally to photography. Fascinated by body and emotions she now works extensively for dance-theatre. She was commissioned and has worked in New York, London and Tokyo with choreographers such as Ted Stoffer, Jasmin Vardimon, Takiko Iwabuchi, Wayne McGregor, Bill Shannon and others.
