In her most recent work, Isabelle employs dance and water as metaphors for vital energy itself - seeking to visualize the primal force that underlies all social organization. Moving beyond her observational practice, she now engages imagination directly, constructing landscapes of suspended water droplets that materialize cosmic vitality, rendering visible what typically remains beyond perception.

This investigation of pure energy emerged from her documentation of urban dance communities, where she filmed dancers engaged in ongoing negotiations with oppressive structures, positioning movement as a site of resistance and self-determination.

Her engagement with dance grew out of an earlier body of work interrogating gender performativity. Through portraiture and choreographed sequences featuring drag queens, voguers, and fashion models, she examined how performance destabilizes normative categories, revealing gender as constructed rather than essential.

These concerns with social constructs trace back to her foundational series "Outlinings" and "Upstream," where she mapped the spatial politics of collective life. Working with flows of crowds, traffic, urban development - she articulated how power operates through the organization and regulation of bodies in space, establishing a critical practice that continues to animate her work today.
