Prior to dedicating herself to her own artistic practice she has worked at NORD Architects Copenhagen and other architecture and interior design studios. She is currently working in the fields of Collectible design, sculpture and Installation art. Her work is an exploration of rituals, of the cosmic, of the eternal beauty of raw materials. Her objects are made out of wood, brass, bronze, marble, travertine, granite and limestone. She creates objects that together form spaces for contemplative, meditative and mindful experiences. Her work is represented by Galerie Philia-New York, USA and Delisart-Lugano, Switzerland.
