She is the author of the book ‘The painting of the roots’ in which she combines Painting with the study of the Family Tree, guiding the reader to include and paint the ancestors.
The meaning of her name is her statement: “Trust in spontaneity”.
In art she uses a sannyasin “surname” received during a meditation in India: Kunkunate.
