Diane Silver’s quiet, organized aesthetic is accentuated through her use of minimal tones and multimedia practice, merging contemporary tropes with cathartic gestures to explore the relationship between our virtual and physical worlds. Her binary world is distilled through light, space, and illusion, eliminating preciousness to create pieces that are open and direct in their presentation.

Exploring ideas of memory and repetitive actions in relation to religion is a common theme in Silver’s practice. Prayer beads, mantras, labyrinths and meditation create a collective memory in that they re-perform movements of the past solidifying social norms and behavior for the future.
