As a curator, her interest lies primarily in collaboration and interdisciplinarity in the works of the local emerging art scene, especially that of the younger generation. Her last curatorial project, a group show entitled "No One Belongs Here More Than You" at the Kunsthalle – Budapest in 2011, examined mapping and existing artistic collaborations among young artists of the Hungarian art field. She has also participated in several public art projects and festivals (Placcc Festival, Temporary City), as she is interested in initiating art projects outside of gallery spaces.
