ALI, DIANA

I was born in Manchester, UK to Bangladeshi parents. I am primarily a Visual Artist and have exhibited in Manchester, London and recently in the Roaming Biennial in Tehran and Karachi in Pakistan. My medium involves mixed media painting, drawing, installation and text based work. My concerns are working with responses, collaboration, authorship and exchange. My work has featured in The Disarmory Newspaper in New York and the BBC Arts website. My curatorial projects include directing ‘Up & Coming’ at the CUC in Liverpool, an event showcasing 60 emerging national and international artists. I have also curated the ‘Defamiliarization’ touring exhibition in London and Sheffield which involved collaboration with 26 international artists. Currently I am doing a piece of work based on connectivity involving post card exchange and translation with 140 artists around the world. I am also an artist agent, a workshop leader and a Fine Art lecturer.
