As a symbol of movement, current, change, renewal, entrainment, disappearance, and survival, flow creates an endless chain of associations. It occasionally identifies itself with danger or bliss, supplying the author with diverse opportunities to “play” with these themes, including figurative images and abstractions, symbolic tools, and realistic parallels. The author uses a wide range of materials to create large objects. She applies cement to create figurative sculptures and images through embroidery and paint on fabric. Installations made of fabric and large cloth “curtains” reconstruct the space because the flow also implies reconstruction…

The artist conveys various actions, positions, and emotions related to the current, making us feel its power and importance. She reveals the danger of being swept away and the pleasure of delving into the water. For her, the essence and shape of every subject, tangible object, or feeling relate to the concept of flow.
