In the 2000s, she turned to soft sculpture, using contemporary techniques and vinyl textiles to produce collapsible, portable pieces. Her work is included in major Argentinian collections such as the Museum of Modern Art of Mendoza, the Macro-Castagnino in Rosario, the MALBA collection, and the Palais de Glace. In 2010, she took part in the group exhibition Southern Identity: Contemporary Argentine Art, organized by the Smithsonian Latino Center with Argentina’s Secretariat of Culture."
