Her practice is concerned with formal hybridity in moving image and intersectional politics of the local, using languages of video, text, installation and their combinations. With postgraduate study in Shakespeare at University College London, she was a student of Hito Steyerl at UdK Berlin, and is now completing her Masters in Fine Art at Goldsmiths University, London.
