Departing from the more traditional delivery of poetry, Gabriele uses song and spoken word as a vehicle for her poetry, in conjunction with CD and DVD releases. In 2004 she produced the multimedia CD "Apelsinai aikštėj apgriuvusioj" (Oranges on a Wretched Square) followed in 2009 by the poetry/music/video collaboration "Avaspo" (Audiovisual Asp of Poetry) releasing its debut "Nėra okeano" (There Is No Ocean), "Niagara" (Niagara), "Kraujuojantis Okeana" (Ocean Is Bleeding). All poetic trilogy can be found at www.avaspo.lt.
Since 2006 Gabriele organizes the annual festival Tarpfest (In-between Festival), Lithuania's only audiovisual poetry festival. The festival takes place during three days in October in Vilnius, Kaunas and Klaipėda.
