Series[edit]
- Fear and security - Psychological and mental mechanisms of the society as well as the 9/11 incident in New York City are the starting point of the series. Aesthetically these works are very simple and silent, even minimalistic.[3]
- The New Landscapes - In the series New Landscapes the photographs are taken from famous metropolises, buildings, factories, cemeteries, airports, towers - mostly strategically important places involving a mixture of lights in the scenery and a long exposure so that they become almost like short movies.[4] The photographs have been re-worked by computer.
- Asymmetric Exposure - series about her admiration of the skyscraper's as well as understanding of the fragility of those and common peace agreements in the society.[5]
- Plants / objects / paint - series about artificiality, alienation and reality.[citation needed]
