Artist Statement
Danielle Mariz Berger is a New York-based Graphic Designer and Artist. Through print and digital mediums, she makes work that examines the nexus between Christianity and colonialism in America, through a female, Filipino-American lens. She investigates the relationship between typography, image, and the written word. Her work exists as both a hallelujah and a lamentation— a celebration of personal identity and belonging, and a mourning for how colonialism has isolated us from practices of love. Danielle uses printed ephemera, such as Risograph posters, postcards, and books, to explore themes of family and religion in relation to Filipino-American identity. In her work, Danielle asks, “how can graphic design be used to cross-examine the informants of cultural and racial identity in America, through the lens of religion and gender? How can graphic design and printmaking be used to initiate critical dialogue, while allowing us to challenge our own internalized colonialism?”
