Diana Hyslop
Born 1949, lives and works in Johannesburg, South Africa
Largely informed by comics and film, Hyslop’s work explores magical realism and a universe of possibilities in which unexpected combinations are viable, all co-exist, and where everything can happen at once. She is interested in the duality of existence, a solitary/social phenomenon though which an eminent encounter can sometimes determine our pathways. And go beyond it.
Hyslop has exhibited locally and abroad, and has her work in numerous collections in South Africa and has participated in international art workshops in Botswana, Kenya, Namibia, South Africa and Uruguay.
