| Summary: | Born in Uruguay, Diana Blok grew up in several Latin American countries before settling in Amsterdam in the 1970s. A self-taught portrait photographer, she first turned her gaze to herself, visualising myths and dreams and capturing forms of kinship between people. Her work has since focused mainly on portraying people for whom gender, (cultural) identity, and sexual preferences are not fixed. During the global pandemic, she began photographing dried leaves in Brazil in macroscopic detail, imbuing them with new life. |
