she studied at the royal danish academy of art, school of design, and gained a masters degree from the royal college of art in london in 2008. her work can be found in the collections of victoria and albert museum, london, the danish art foundation, musee ariana, genève, bornholm art museum, denmark, and design museum denmark.
