During the last decades her artistic production has centered around the displacement of drawing and its relationship with photography. By linking the analog and the digital, she has been building an archive of images that, captured or digitally fabricated, elaborate an unstable border between the public and the private, the visible and the invisible, and the collective and the individual memory. For example, in a residency and exhibition at the Museo del Barro, Paraguay (2006), she visited and recorded some of the files from the Archive of Terror. With the material collected, she produced works, such as "The names/Lost traces" for the curator Cristián Gómez-Moya's project "Human Rights/Copy Rights, Visual archives in the era of declassification", exhibited at the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo of Santiago in 2011. Another important project was "Graphic crossing" (2004), where she used digital photography to record five minimal and ephemeral urban interventions in emblematic places in downtown Santiago, which were later digitally intervened. Both projects were supported by FONDART.

An important part of her career has been involved in collaborative work, and since 1989 she has participated with Ximena Zomosa and Paz Carvajal in group projects. These include "Project of a Boundary", a series of site-specific installations at MAC Valdivia, the Fuller Museum of Art, Brockton, and Latincollector Art Center, NY, in the USA, and ArtSpace, Sydney, Australia (1999-2005); and "Outside the edge", at Museo Regional de Punta Arenas, Chile, Espacio de Arte Contemporáneo de Montevideo, Uruguay, mARTadero, Cochabamba, Bolivia, La Curtiduría, Oaxaca, Mexico, and Casa E, Valparaíso, Chile (2012-13).

Other recent collective projects include: "Magic Block", exhibited at Stiftelsen 3,14, International Foundation for Contemporary Art, in Bergen, Norway, 2013, and at Museo de la Solidaridad Salvador Allende, Santiago, in 2014 (curated by Brandon LaBelle and Soledad García). Also She participated in the collective project "Écfrasis" of the group MuroSur, under the curatorial direction of Ana María Fernández. This work consisted of sound works, the recording of an audio description of a fictitious or real visual work for an exhibition in Amsterdam, Holland. With this material a double vinyl was recorded and presented in November 2018 at the Printing Plant Art Book Fair in Amsterdam, and presented in Chile at Galería D21 in Santiago, in 2019 (curators: Ana María Fernández, Martín La Roche and Giancarlo Pazzanese).

The aforementioned are examples of an artistic methodology focused on long projects, often collaborative and/or collective, with displacements of traditional art techniques and involving the digital image. In the financing of these works she has received support from FONDART, Consejo Nacional de la Cultura y las Artes (1998, 1999, 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2008) and the DIRAC Grant, Dirección de Asuntos Culturales del Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Chile (2002, 2005 and 2011).
