In her concept art work, the artist deals in a variety of ways with the subject of camouflage and deception . In Sengl's work, questions about identity , but also about pastiche and masquerade, are transferred to the animal kingdom, while the entire complex “victims against perpetrators” is examined at the same time.

Her sculpture "Wolfsschafpriest", which depicts a priest with a sheep's head but a wolf's teeth, illustrated the poster for the exhibition "Art, Body, Art," in Osnabrück in 2008 .
