About Danielle.
I make The Future palatable.
I’m Danielle (she/her), a multi-disciplinary artist who uses food and objects to create powerful, emotional connections. I call myself a food typographer (and pioneered this sub-genre of design in 2013), which is part photographer, part designer, with a dash of food scientist. All my work is composed in analog and in-camera but relies on technology to be digested. These pieces become statements on social issues, consumerism, and the joy of human connection.
Food is a universal experience, one that evokes nostalgia and warmth. Food is also subversive, mystical, political. Both a cultural signifier and a status symbol-- using it as an artistic medium only enhanced its potency! I've learned languages, taught myself new technologies, and broadened my visual language— anything to create stronger connections with people.
