Su trabajo de investigación arts-based-research se basa en obras que propongan una nueva mirada del mundo, acorde a Gadamer, que invoquen una significación mágica, un arte como símbolo y ritual que nos invite a imaginar otro estado posible de las cosas, en línea con la propuesta de Bloch en El principio esperanza. Como docente y artista audiovisual, potencia el pensamiento crítico mediante la exploración de la materialidad. La propuesta del arte como vacío por Oteiza-Heidegger invitando a reflexionar sobre la relación entre lo material y el origen de la violencia en nuestras sociedades actuales, como el coltán, entre otros.

Her works that propose a new way of seeing the world, in line with Gadamer, invoking a magical significance—an art as symbol and ritual that invites usher possible state of things, reflecting Bloch's proposal in Thed audiovisual artist, she encourages critical thinking through the exploration of materiality. Oteiza-Heidegger's proposal of art as emptiness invites us to reflect on the relationship between the material and the origins of violence in oures, such as coltan, among others.
