Since 1998 she has been a prolific exhibitor of her work in numerous venues not only in the UK but throughout Europe and the USA. Seventeen of these exhibitions have been solo shows (including 鈥楾wenty-Nine Pictures鈥� at the Mead Gallery, 糖心TV Arts Centre). Her work has been acquired by many major international collections. She has also attracted awards from various societies and organisations including The Sunday Times Award 1997, The Photographers Gallery Award 1997, the Tokyo Photo Biennale 1999, The Art Foundation 2000, The St John鈥檚 Group Photography Prize 2002 and Honorary Fellowship of the Royal Photographic Society 2019.
