She is known for her photography and mixed media work, which primarily explores themes related to the Eastern European mentality, feelings of not belonging, and the perspective of being both an insider and an outsider. Her art often explores the lives of young people and the impact of political and social dynamics on their everyday experiences. Gerzha's work has been exhibited at the Biennale de l'Image Possible, Paris Photo, Encontros da Imagem, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and featured in publications such as De Volkskrant, Marie Claire Belgique, ELLE Korea, and the British Journal of Photography. Her photography captures the essence of coming-of-age moments, often depicting 'party culture' as a form of escapism for the youth she photographs.
