Their artistic and curatorial practices are interested in feminisms, migration, and body politics manifesting in a transdisciplinary body of work that combines writing, movement, performance, photography and installations. They use somatic movement as a research method; the body as material. She uses both autobiographical and collective knowledge to challenge the perception of the self under social constructions and cultural environments and redefine and deconstruct univocal notions of the 'female'.
