Her works were shown in several countries in the world with Group and Solo exhibitions. Among these, she joined in 2006 the Vietnamese Cultural Festival in Italy, “The Dragon and the Butterfly”.

The simple and basic, though modern technique of the artist, have roots in the old engraving and wood sculpture.
