She splits her time between there and Berlin. In her poems, Sabine Scho experiments with the intertwining of word and image. She publishes in anthologies and literary journals. Her debut collection, 'Thomas Kling discovers Sabine Scho', was published in 2001 and reissued by kookbooks in 2008, with new poems to follow in the fall of 2008.
