After her COOP.WALK journey to Moscow in september 2012 only some weeks following the" Pussy Riot "art attack against Putin, she begins her series in gold. Influenced by the gold over gold in red icons of churches and musees,she understands the painters attitude of using gold, ordered by religious and political patriarchs as "glamour attacks to underdog minds ". She thinks that the colour of gold is a non democratic colour, describing the power of the so coloured owner. Admiring people are allowed to long for it and bow infront of it, but never really get it. In our days governments and banks and industrial societies put themselves on place of political and religious heroes. The supressive power of gold is translated in money.
