Career path
Navarrese photographer settled between Madrid and Paris. Memory is a recurring theme in her photographic work. In her current research she focuses on mapping different spaces, most of them linked to landscape and natural history to study new traces and methods of memory transmission.
Her exhibition career, both individual and collective, began in 2013 with Ofelia at the SegoviaFOTO festival, and continues to this day exhibiting in places such as the Center Pompidou in Malaga, Tabacalera Madrid, the Museum of Navarra, the Huarte Contemporary Art Center, the Galerie Nadar in Tourcoing, Art-hop-Polis in Paris or Las Cigarreras in Alicante.
Cartographie Éphémere, one of his latest projects, has recently been published as a book with Ediciones Posibles thanks to the support for publication from Centro Huarte.
