Her artistic projects Lo elevado profundo, Inside and Muniellos are part of the exhibition circuit of the programme for the dissemination of the visual arts ‘Asturies, Cultura en Rede’ of the Regional Ministry of Culture of the Government of the Principality of Asturias.
Her work offers a reflection on the contemporary challenges of the human condition in contexts of uncertainty, displacement, and vulnerability. She explores these themes through photography, audiovisual media, and writing.
Her practice, based on strategies such as estrangement, ambiguity, and fragmentation, deconstructs natural and urban landscapes to propose new ways of approaching the intimate, the ephemeral, and the collective.
Her work has been exhibited in Argentina, Chile, France, Spain, Poland, Switzerland and Uruguay.
She is the author of the photobooks Inside (Muga / Ediciones Posibles, 2024) and Pérdida (Muga / Fluq, 2015) and director of a research project on the reading experience of photobooks, the result of which was the book De discursos visuales, secuencias y fotolibros (Muga, 2019).
Her course Estrategias editoriales en fotolibros, which she teaches with editor Leo Simoes, has been given at festivals, art centres, universities and photography schools in Argentina, Chile, Spain and Mexico.
