She published El guardián del umbral, her first book of poems, paintings and proses that she presented with songs at the well-known Academia Porteña del Lunfardo.

All this was shaping her with a unique sensitivity which is not to be missed. Her lyrics and music also have a heartfelt interpretation.

Lilian has clothed her words with color and her songs are also visually enjoyed in oil, pastel and watercolor paintings.

That is how our eyes and our ears will be filled with: “Lazos de amor”, “Vamos tango”, “Ciudad de ciegos”, among other 16 songs of her CD Lazos de Amor, premiered in 2010 at the Café del Lector (Reader’s Café) of the Biblioteca Nacional (National Library).

In 2009 she was awarded the first prize at the Certamen de Tango «Hugo del Carril» (tango contest), in the words and music category with the song “Ganitas locas de amar”, dedicated to the poet Alejandra Pizarnik.

She again won the first prize at the contest in 2013, with the lyrics and music of her song “Escrache”.
