Diana Green
Diana’s paintings are layered, detailed and delicate. Figures are abstracted from their context, forming a narrative that isn’t fully stated. She is interested in a process of layering that searches for meaning, where the painting reveals itself. The meaning is suggested. Fragments of a narrative share space on a canvas and imply their own connections.
Diana uses her intuition and plays with thoughtfulness to question her work. She grabs lessons from Zurburan, El Greco, Teipolo, Ensor and is influenced by art from China, Japan & India. Manipulating her own technique with the formal language of painting, she feels like a trapeze artist balancing between the abstract and the figurative, until she believes in what she sees and until everything arrives in its proper place.
