Danielsen works in an expanded field of spatial arts, crafts and sculpture, with references to architecture. For her lecture she will present her development process in selected artworks focussing on large scale spatial, site-specific and freestanding artwork from her MA Exam until today - her latest Art Commission at Karolinska University hospital, Huddinge, Stockholms läns landsting. 

"Themes that recur often in my work are words and concepts such as; time, transitions, motion, space, site, change and intangible value. Creating visual art and spatial expressions using metaphors as well as literal interpretation of the word and its multifarious significance. By utilizing known building elements in new assemblages it opens for reflections on choices in our own life and the society we live in. Dark humour on serious dilemmas is an important driving force for me as an artist. Endringsvindu (Window of opportunity), show your own face mirroring in layers of glass, giving an echo chamber- open questions; who’s to change - you, me or the society we live in?"

Danielsen was educated at Bergen Academy of the Arts, Specialized Art, Ceramic Dep. Holds an MA (2004) within “Transparent brick” research for art and architecture purposes.
