Inspired by her own family&#8217;s multicultural history, she combines storytelling and craft traditions in her work to create an integrated or coded language. Since 2019, with the support of <em>Mobilier National <\/em>and Google Arts and Culture, her work has focused on the dialogue between textiles and technology, creating pieces that sing and light up in response to the viewer&#8217;s movements.\u00a0Her recent work also explores plant materials to imagine how the history of a place can be told through its plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her works have been exhibited worldwide, notably at the Australia Tapestry Workshop in Melbourne and the <em>Palais de Tokyo<\/em>. Following an Albertine residency in 2023, she is now an affiliate researcher at the MIT Media Lab in Zach Lieberman&#8217;s Future Sketches group around computational
