Object-art
The object-art is characteristic of the 21 century: the throwaway society itself survived. The artist is now looking just as a contrast typical of old paper, textiles, ceramics, wood, metal, ... From the Old arises the New: one-dimensional or multidimensional: in many compound as a relief or a sculpture. Not in abundance, but in focusing on the basics, the object-art proves her mastery.
