La profession de costumière professionnelle pour danseurs et acteurs a été le point central de mon travail artistique pendant les 15 dernières années. En 1993, j'ai commencé à créer mes larges colliers pour des exposition et la vente au grand public. Le moteur de ces deux activités est mon intérêt pour la couleur comme moyen de traduire les émotions, les idées et la mémoire du monde dans lequel nous vivons.

Les renseignements ci-dessous sont des exemples choisis de mes activités et des réalisations de ces dernières années.
