Of Loss and Rot

Hey frands. My work and I were recently written up twice this month! Woo! I’ll also be doing a podcast interview later this month with The Roost and I am pretty excited about that.

“I was initially interested in working in government and politics while growing up,” explains artist Danielle Draik. She turned to art when she realized it was a more ideologically pure form. She finds great satisfaction in the act of creation – building something out of nothing. “It’s amazing to have met people who have seen my work, approached me, and told me that they’ve connected to it, deeply.”
