Can be hung or laid flat.

As in her works in general, we see a number of playful and personal connotations in her rug works. For example, in 2017's 'Best friends hair will always take care', she has woven a blond lock of hair from her best friend on to a black broom handle. In her recent works, we see more accoutrements of witchcraft, where she uses elements from nature and makes them a part of her installations.
