Her resulting Prague Portrait series was shown at F-Stop Gallery in Bath, In Prague and Cheb on the German border and at the Zelda Cheatle Gallery in London.
Shows of other work followed at Kladno, Czech Republic in 1997, The British Embassy in Brussels in 1998 and the Brixton Art Gallery in 1999 where her Objects show provided the impetus for the collaborative Real Things project, website and exhibition at Photofusion, London in 2000.
