Her research interests include the impact of AI on Visual Culture, semiotics and modernist abstraction, industrial architecture, conceptual, spatial, and structural drawing, and post-modern painting. She has exhibited paintings and drawings selectively in Kuwait City and public and private art institutions and sectors in Australia.
