She has had solo exhibitions, among others, at the Goethe House, New York; Neuer Aachener Kunstverein, Aachen; Kunstsammlung NRW, Düsseldorf. Her work has also been featured in group exhibitions at, among others, CAAC-Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo, Seville; Ludwig Forum for International Art, Aachen; Centro CulturalConde Duque, Madrid; Wallraf-Richartz-Museum Cologne; Ars Electronica 1999; ISEA 2002, Nagoya. She currently works on an interactive installation for a public place at the Metro-Station Schadow strasse in Düsseldorf. Since 2008 she holds the chair of Media Environments (Media Arts & Design) at the Bauhaus-University Weimar.
