In "Capitalism will step over your dead body", she resurrects discarded objects in a spirit of playful irreverence. By bringing new life and imagination to castoffs, her assemblages open pathways to reconfigure social frames and definitions of usefulness.

In her "Artificial Stage" box constructions honoring Joseph Cornell, HEYDT crafts intricate mini-worlds that invite introspection. Arranging diverse detritus to illuminate imagined landscapes, these works spark investigations of identity amid everyday items society deems worthless. Both series draw from avant-garde predecessors to challenge rigid boundaries surrounding gender, the body, and systems of meaning.
