The performative event ‘Domestic drills – Then when did the thought start?’ attempts to explore the limits and possibilities of the domestic through daily practices and experiences. Its stereotypical recognition is taken on by new privacies and individual imaginations that trigger shifts, reorganisations and associations.

focuses on the time and place of present day life, creating the framework and protocol for generating collective experiences. Her projects foster a participatory economy of exchange where a common experience occurs within a common framework. As an ongoing examination of how learning is shaped by and into diverse environments she works in primary schools and reimagines the school communities by creating micro - environments within this specific milieu, in which space acquires a quality relative to the subjects and becomes a learning stimulant.
