The significance of visual aestethic qualities in the public domain, which has been so prominent in the social debate of the nineties in Norway, has been a central theme in Dyrnes´ artistic intensions. The numerous projects in which she has been involved in recent years express both her conscious positioning and strong social engament in this theme.
