She is aiming to make "a kinesthetic moving surface". See more on her website., and also her drawings and paintings.The description of a 2006 exhibition at The Drawing Center, Eleanore Mikus: From Shell to Skin, said:
"Mikus’s early work received considerable attention; her paintings were exhibited at and eventually purchased by the Museum of Modern Art in the 1960s. Yet despite initial success
and a long teaching career at Cornell University, Mikus’s work seems to have largely been missed by art history. ... Seemingly minimalist and reductive in style, Mikus’s paintings and folded paper works actually result from experimentation with and refinement of additive processes, as she continues to work and rework her pieces for many years, often returning to them after long periods of time."
