focus lies on social structures, digital media and contemporary forms of communication. She holds a
postgraduate degree in fine art from the State Academy of Fine Art where she studied at the classes of
Christian Jankowski and Rainer Ganahl in Stuttgart, as well as the class of Gerhard Merz in Munich. She
was a recipient of a DAAD scholarship in 2010 to reside in Beijing, China.
