Water Me / Eat Me (2009): a self-sustained laboratory, where the artists not only 'fed' a potato field with her own blood thereby mixing their DNA, but where the potatoes also acted as a source of energy for watering the plants, through a series of wires attached to copper and zinc plates, placed inside the potatoes.The work was a metaphor for her life: she comes from a place she cannot remember, and now lives in a 'destination she does not know'. Mein Deutsches Herz / My German Heart (2009): identifying herself with the ubiquitous potato in Germany (a plant from 'elsewhere' introduced to Europe) the artist installed a small motor in a gutted potato, which was painted red, animating it like a beating heart.She uses both living and dead materials, at times constructing machines that can mirror organisms, and creates a dialogue between art and science, her identity and social systems. Her installations are meticulously researched, and she often uses humor to get her point across.

Her work often speaks of issues of migration, identity, and social spaces, using natural or biological processes as metaphors.
