Her current body of work focuses primarily on women, and their relationships with each other and with power. She also finds ways to depict the strength, confidence and independence women draw from their bonds of friendship. 

The small portrait pieces in this show are a part of her daily practice. What attracts her to these "school" photos is how they the uninhibited awkwardness of being a kid.
