She earned her Master’s degree at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. Her work combines a sensitive approach to form and material, balancing between reality and the world of fiction. Her objects often resemble living organisms – strange creatures, sometimes delicate and soft, other times spiky and wild – that seem to come alive on the body and interact both with the wearer and the surrounding environment. Her work has been presented at international exhibitions and design fairs, including in Munich, Tallinn, Barcelona, Brussels, and Amsterdam.
