The artist is best known for her light and shadow sculptures constructed from everyday objects. Constellation Mana is from a series of portraits called "Constellation". Each of the works in this series is created by winding a single black thread around galvanized brads on a white board. The dark areas are produced solely by densely wound and overlapping thread. This technique is seen in the enlarged photograph of Constellation Mana.
