Between 2013 and 2020 she traveled and lived in South East Asia, Australia, Europe, and the USA —this influenced her art approach encouraging her to explore multiple creative practices. Art Nouveau, Surrealism, and Narrative Art inspire her visual language, while Symbolism and Mythology feed her research.

In 2016, she accomplished a Master’s Degree in Visual Arts at the DAMS University (ITA). In 2018 she collaborated on the text of the catalog for “A Better Landscape” exhibition (Unimedia Modern, Genova, Italy), and in 2019 she published an art essay with Mimesis Editor (“M. R. Ballestra, a Phenomenology of Posthumanism”). She worked for Red Poppy Art House as a performance host and art curator from 2016 to 2020.
