Introspection

Tempesta Gallery is pleased to announce the artist's first solo exhibition in Italy on November 24, 2022.

After years of exploring the infinite possibilities of textile materials as forms of art, Diana Orving takes her creative ingenuity a step further. In her new work, Becoming, for Galleria Tempesta, she has created a large suspended installation, a textile sculpture reminiscent of a placenta, the tree of life from which everything originates, embodying the bond between mother and child.

"I understand form through my hands and await the moment when feeling and thought intersect. I use form and movement to express and understand moods, relational dynamics, mental and physical processes. For me, art is a spiritual tool and a language that sometimes communicates on a deeper and more instinctive level than mere words." — Diana Orving
