Her works present sexual minorities such as homosexuals, transsexuals and transvestites. With the exhibition &#8216;Ecce Homo&#8217; in 1998, which made her famous in Scandinavia (and Europe?), she wanted to remind people that Jeusus worked and helped the outcasts of society. Using people from the LGBT community as models for her staged photos are important to her. &#8216;Ecce Homo&#8217; earned her the honorary title of &#8216;\u00c5rets Homo&#8217; ~homosexual of the year (1998)\u00a0in Sweden and this year she\u00a0was given\u00a0the title once more at\u00a0the QX Gay-Gala in Stockholm.
