[7] Her exhibitions have also been critically reviewed in The Washington Post [8] and multiple other art venues, art fairs, and galleries. Cherubim notes about her work:
... the way I see art, and create it. It is influenced by the world around me: by my time spent living in Santa Fe, New Mexico, as much as suburban Maryland, and the DC area. It is influenced by the energy and essence of having been a Montrealer for most of my life, as much as the desire to once again visit the ever-elusive island, where my parents' lives began. [9]
The Washington Post has called her work compellingly otherworldly. [8] The most recent exhibition of her work opened in 2019 at The Woman's National Democratic Club in Washington, DC. [5] [7]
