Her music frequently incorporates layered vocals and introspective lyricism, creating a distinctive and emotive soundscape. ZENA’s earlier work established a foundation in electronic production before evolving towards a more nuanced and organic sonic palette.

Bijlokesite is a prominent cultural complex situated on the site of the former St. Lievens hospital in Ghent. Originally founded in 1986, it serves as a hub for contemporary arts, encompassing theatre, dance, and music. The site itself features several performance spaces including the Concertgebouw (concert hall) and Vooruit, alongside studios and exhibition areas. The buildings reflect a mix of historical architecture – remnants of the medieval hospital – integrated with modern design elements resulting from extensive renovations over the years. It is managed by the City of Ghent and plays a significant role in the city's artistic programming and cultural identity. The open-air spaces within Bijlokesite are often utilized for larger scale events during warmer months.
