Behind her is a desk with books and a wire running along the floor that is connected to a TV on the wall. Images of her work are positioned in a grid sequence on the wall. Also in the background there is a bookshelf with a potted Asparagus Fern plant sitting on top of the shelf and a Monstera Deliciosa plant in a wooden planter on the floor.
