Danielle Friesen (b. 1997, Winnipeg) is a biracial Canadian artist of Bajan descent. She holds a diploma in Graphic Design from Red River College (2019) and moved to Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 2022 to study Fine Art at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. Danielle is a recipient of the Harrison McCain Scholarship in Memory of Marion McCain, Thomas George and Ethel Pearson MacKenzie Scholarship, and the Bernadette Macdonald Bursary. She anticipates graduating in 2025. 

Danielle's interdisciplinary practice is rooted in drawing, with a focus on abstraction. Her current work focuses on repeated mark-making, allowing the process to reveal unexpected outcomes. Influenced by artists who continuously evolve their practice, Danielle is particularly drawn to the act of discovery and surprise that unfolds during the making of her work.
