Metamorphosis II (1988)
Video
In this video collage, the artist is seen in various still portrait shots with layers of flowers and leaves moving and circling above her, which have been duplicated by video processes. It gives the feeling of the human connection to the natural world and beauty which is also reflected in the ambient music which accompanies the piece.

Storm (1976)
Video Stills
These video graphics were created using the video camera of a densitometer in the laboratories of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences to create abstract images. The camera associated with the macroscope allowed a variety of colour modifications to the draft, computer artwork. Most often, this device allowed the artist to create and search for the most suitable colour variations from the computer. The resulting images were recorded by photographing the screen.
