Belle Captive I, (2013) is a video installation that uses appropriated stock footage that is transferred from 16 mm film to digital video. The piece was presented in the lobby gallery of the 2014 Whitney Biennial.[5]

Lorem ipsum I, (2013) "is a flow of fragmentary images [that] flirts with and recoil[s] from a fully integrated, intact portrait."[6] This digital video screened at the "Projections" program at the New York Film Festival in 2014.

In 2014, her sculptural and video based abstract work was part of the Whitney Biennial exhibition in its lobby gallery.[7]
