In 2008, Verónica co-create with Jérôme Sounds & Shapes Ltd, their own company which allows her to reunite music & design in a balanced and complementary way. Indeed since her experience working in art therapy with children in Geneva (1994), she often uses drawing to express herself and illustrate movement, music & silence. She has exposed in Geneva, London and New York. Her taste for improvisation grows and pushes her to join different ensembles like · TIC The Improvisers’ Choir · (winner of · Non Classical Battle of the Bands · 2018), a beautiful project by · Dancing with Parkinson’s · (2019) as well as · THAT! Ensemble · a mixed genre group of 4 musicians and physical theatre comedians which explores vocal improvisation, acting and dance. In parallel, her classically trained voice allows Verónica to join the brand new ensemble, · El Parnasso Hispano · a South American early music Quatuor - concerts have started at the end of 2020. She is currently touring her programme · Melodies & more · with the pianist Maya Irgalina.

During the first lockdown in 2020, Verónica has created and developped a series of mandalas and vocal improvisations inspired by her designs; she has reunited them all in a meditative and interractive colouring album  · Voice & Mandalas ·
