The conditions and emotions that she wants to present as installations are not disconnected, but each one belongs and each contains, in mutual possession, just to describe ten vital worlds that each possesses, ten inner states of being, lived moment by moment and in exchange for each other. All the possible dynamics of human experience are described by a space, called a detention chamber, where the protagonists, the door and the key, in the figures of the "prisoner" and the "guard" are in constant dialogue. These dialogues are interpreted by voices and drawn faces and paintings, and they tell the experience of the vital state through the interpretation of the artists.
