Heidi Moller-Somsen was born in Saskatchewan and raised on the rugged coast of British Columbia. She received a BFA from Brigham Young University (1995) and an MFA from the University of Utah (2011). Her art practice responds to the materiality of things and a struggle to understand the “big questions” of life. She has taught adjunct at the University of Utah and has spent many years as an integral part of the Visual Art Institute, a non-profit art school in Salt Lake City. In 2020 she began teaching at The Waterford School, an independent liberal arts k-12 school in Sandy, Utah where she also lives and maintains a studio. Through mentoring young artists, Moller-Somsen maintains hope that art and creativity can help move communities toward mutual understanding and the entire planet toward healing.
