The artist from southern Germany has worked on the theme of plastic waste since 2015. Her installation "The great pacific garbage patch" was shown for the first time ever. It consists of 12 illuminated fisch made from colourfull plastic waste, about 80x80x30cm each. It was realised in the middle of the village, free hanging seven meters over the Tamina river. Despite heavy thunderstorms the installation survived the rough mountain climate of Vättis during the four weeks without damage.

In the village museum, the artists showed some prints on acrilic glass (150x90cm) about the same theme.
