This mélange incorporates cultural and religious influences. and fusion of different artistic languages. Her meticulously composed and highly impactful photographs include veiled figures that symbolise the body as a sacred building. as the 'temple of the soul'. a modernist style reminiscent of some traditional Madonnas of classical art.
