In her works she often reflects on the connection between mind, body and soul, and tensions between body and environment. Her work can be seen as an exploration of existence and memories. She realizes many ideas and exhibitions together with Niclas Hallberg.

As a curator, she has arranged many showings in a variety of contexts. and as being one of the founders of Formverk (art zone), an artist-run exhibition space, she has a broad network of other artists and independent art initiatives.
