The sculptures of Marian Heyerdahl have their roots in many parts of the world but over the years, Africa and latin America have been the most dominant continents. The cycle of her artistic research has come full circle from the African and South American continents back to her home. It reflects an artist's concern with the elements: air, earth, fire and water. The formal aesthetic properties in her work speak of a simplicity of form, of low technology rather than high, offering an antithesis to a hyper post modern environment.
    Her conceptual work is based on organic, sensual and archaic for ms, utilizing different materials as glass, cement, clay, sand and eggshell to emphasize the visual perception and symbolism.
    In addition or her sculptures and installations she has been commissioned to do public art and specific projects: Project Gambia-Henie Onstad, and Millennium Wall Project in Jingdezhen, China.
    Exhibition projects have been presented in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Poland, Germany, Sweden, Norway, USA And Russia
    Her studios are based in Oslo ,Norway and Colla Micheri , Italy
