about me

          Danielle Nicole Smith is a self-identified feminist artist working in Toronto, completing her Bachelor of Fine Art with a major in Drawing and Painting at OCAD University. Her entire body of work utilizes various artistic methods, such as collage and hand-lettering, and often incorporates craft techniques, including embroidery and quilting. The subject matter of her work is often personal, and ranges from talking about her experiences with mental illness and medication, to exploring rape culture and popular perceptions of current feminist concerns and issues.



          Smith's studio practice involves constantly critiquing her own position within the feminist movement, and acknowledging and keeping in check the privileges from which she does benefit.

 

         Smith's work has been written about in the Toronto Standard, and she was both a participating artist and panelist at the inaugural Feminist Art Conference. Her work was also part of the 98th Annual Graduation Exhibition at OCAD University.
