Her work has been shown in solo and group exhibitions at Kunsthaus Zürich, Fotomuseum Winterthur, Casino Luxembourg, Kunsthaus Aarau, Kunsthaus Baselland, Kunstmuseum Bern, Forum Stadtpark Graz, Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie Arles, Helmhaus Zürich, Städtische Galerie Dresden, Galerie Sztuki Krakow, NBK Berlin, Fotomuseo Bogota, MAC’s Musée des Arts Contemporaines Belgium, MUDAM Luxembourg, Grey Art Gallery New York, Haus für Kunst Uri and Oboro Artist Center Montreal, Canada.
