Danica Maier is an American born artist and academic currently living and working between Nottingham, Lincolnshire and beyond. Her practice focuses on the unrepeating repeat, material processes, transposition, conflating expectations, and how an audience looks\/listens; as well as the dialogical nature of collaborative projects that foster independent artwork alongside wider group outcomes. Maier\u2019s work uses drawing, site-specific installations, and objects to explore expectations while using subtle slippages to transgress propriety.<\/span><\/p>\n \u200b<\/span><\/p>\n Further areas of enquiry include – an exploration of processes (making) through other mediums and the connection to transposition; historical objects re-interrupted and contemporarily re-created; intertextuality of artistic processes as well as within writing\/words; words and pattern which sit on the intersection of language and visuals; autobiographical narratives explored through the lens of other sources and staring points; and a dialogical nature of collaborative projects which enable individual practice research to occur.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Danica has been a practising artist since 1995, with an international research profile involving exhibition, publication, performance and guest lecturing. Recent exhibitions and live events include:\u00a0Score: Mechanical Asynchronicity<\/em>\u00a0at Sir Jack Lyons Concert Hall, York Concerts, The Space,\u00a0 Nottingham Contemporary and Prix Annelie de Man, Orgalpark, Amsterdam;\u00a0Bummock: Tennyson Research Centre<\/em>\u00a0at The Hub: A National Centre for Craft and Design, Sleaford and The Collection Museum, Lincoln;\u00a0Associated Thoughts on Line<\/em>, as part of the\u00a0Convocation: On Expanded Language – Based Practices<\/em>\u00a0within the Research Pavilion at the 58th<\/sup>\u00a0Venice Biennale;\u00a0re-turning<\/em>\u00a0at AirSpace Gallery, Stoke-on-Trent.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Additional and alongside her independent practice Danica often works within collaborative frameworks in which she is interested in the balance between giving equivalent priority to both the personal and shared interests.
