ARTIST STATEMENT
I make digital art about states of flux, continuum and the friction between humanity’s tracings and nature. My art shifts between context and abstraction informed by habitats, environmental forces and biospheres.
I’m an experimenter intrinsically rooted between the digital and traditional world. While my work is painterly, I use digital tools as a catalyst to explore possibilities unique to the media. I build loose structures with a pressure-sensitive digital pen sometimes layered with photo fragments that capture moments in time. As elements interplay I iterate, deconstruct and filter creations into a convergence of dissonance and harmony.
I live on the Central Coast of California. I'm deeply influenced by this beautiful but harsh land of extremes. Humans and climate change leave its mark on this fragile place. My work is a quest for collective cohesiveness in a disruptive rapidly evolving and impermanent world.
BIO
Diana Losch is a digital artist based in the Central Coast of California. Raised in Brooklyn and introduced to the arts at a young age, she earned a BA in Painting from the School of Visual Arts in New York City.
An early innovator in digital media, Diana enjoyed a long career as a visual designer. Her current practice reimagines traditional painterly techniques through advanced digital tools to create a distinctive and evolving visual language that bridges analog and digital realms.
Her work has been exhibited throughout California, including the New Museum of Los Gatos 2025 Biennial, where she was honored with an award for artistic innovation. Diana’s latest series, Westlands, uses map-based structures to explore how humans define and disrupt space, while nature generates self-organizing patterns in response to shifting biospheres.
