Summary:	Die Künstlerin arbeitet mit Abgüssen aus Wachs und Kunstharz nach Bäumen, Tieren und Menschen, deren durchscheinende Oberfläche darunterliegende Farben und Strukturen sichtbar macht. Ihre Skulpturen sind von einer unmittelbaren starken körperlichen Präsenz und verbinden höchste Sinnlichkeit und Ästhetik mit dem Grauen vor der Sterblichkeit und dem Zerfall. Immer wieder öffnen sich vielschichtige Bezüge zur kunsthistorischen Tradition der Malerei und Plastik von der Gotik bis zur Gegenwart.
