These drawings are preserved as a digitized collection on three CDs in important cultural archives... they are drawings notes for installations and sculptures, Some have been realized while others in an embryoinic state. They are notations that reflect the experimental and avant-garde character of the artist's work, as well as her choice of motifs and materials. They represent over three decades of the artist's thinking process related to space and volume. The works consist of drawings, projects, installations and sculptures from 1969 to 2004.
