She prints the structures of bark with organic oil colour and the complex technical process enables her to evoke a new dimension throughout the question of the invisible. She shows faces and fascination being which are only know through old fairy tales and stories.

Briggitaa challenges the logical mind with her art work because everyone will see a world which has formed almost by itself which people thing of as invisible and it is quite obvious that these shapes cannot form by pure coincidence.
