She is one of the most important Catalan creators of Informalism. He evolves towards a very personal neosurrealist stage, creating dream and astral worlds. If at first his main axes were sadomasochism, eroticism and necrophilia, later these have been displaced by the search for emptiness, nothingness or the placement of everyday elements, which intuit the human presence in his Artworks, without being represented. . All this prints a strong ritual character of solemn environments, arranged with a central perspective, not exempt from a certain funereal character. His paintings are an exponent of a meticulous and perfectionist Artwork, and in terms of color it is conditioned by the staging, and consequently they are usually dark tones with central points of light. His particular and personal Artwork has been seen in national and international exhibitions.
