Heidi Dahlsveen serves as Associate Professor at Oslo Metropolitan University's Department of Art, Design and Drama within the Faculty of Technology, Art and Design. Her research bridges artistic practice and academic inquiry, focusing on oral storytelling's application to contemporary societal challenges through traditional narrative frameworks.
Her core research domains include:
- Oral Storytelling methodology and pedagogy
- Narrative theory with emphasis on mimesis and chronotope
- Folktale adaptation for modern contexts
- Digital transformation of oral traditions
- Performance studies in educational settings
- Artistic research as narrative exploration
Recent publications (2019-2025) reveal consistent thematic threads examining narrative identity in digital spaces, the psychological dimensions of storytelling, and cross-cultural applications of folktales. Her work frequently integrates Bakhtinian chronotope theory with practical performance techniques, appearing in arts education and cultural studies publications.
Dahlsveen actively secures competitive research funding, currently leading the EU project 'Common ground, common future' investigating narrative mechanisms in conflict polarization. She previously participated in two EU storytelling initiatives and co-owns Skaldskur AS, demonstrating entrepreneurial engagement with her research.
She contributes to multiple research collectives including 'Art in society', 'Art – Practice – Research', and 'Fashion.Textiles.Design', often facilitating international artistic dialogues through workshops and festival performances across Europe.
