Alongside her artistic work, she is also a co-founder and activist in several women's and queer NGOs and became a spokesperson for LGBT rights in Slovakia at the end of the 1990s.

Originally a glass designer, Daučíková lived in Moscow (then the USSR) for more than a decade in the 1980s, a period that had a significant impact on her artistic work.

In the last few decades, video production has become dominant, together with her long-term teaching experience at several art academies. After exploring the possibilities of queering desire and non-normative sexuality, her focus turned to the video essay, including social issues such as poverty, post-Soviet trauma and memory.
