She attended the École des Beaux-Arts twice, first in 1976-77 and again in 1981–82.

The mix of work during the early years, drawing, painting, etching and photography, led towards the opening up of an interdisciplinary perspective that has progressively become firmly established in recent years, with the inclusion of such spheres as sculpture, installations, video and computer graphics.
