studied scenography and sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. In her sculptures and spatial settings, she questions anthropocentrism and speculates on how the co-existence of human and non-human animals, nature and technology could be articulated in the future. She embraces hybrid modes of relationship in her practice, using both organic materials and industrially produced fabrics for her objects. For TOGETHER THE PARTS, she has largely worked with and re-used elements that were previously part of other constellations. In such a way, she creates and activates material connections for the gathering that can then be transformed into new contexts.
