Diana Taylor

Dr Diana Taylor (b. 1977, UK) lives and works in London. Working across painting, print and textiles, and shifting between traditional and digital media, Taylor explores the impact of the past upon the present - living in an age of the ‘re’. The images and processes in the work are linked by a pre-occupation with loss and ruin in visual culture through the circulation, saturation and degradation of files.
