Diana Scheer [she/they] (b. 1998, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) is a ceramicist and visual artist based in Toronto, Ontario. Currently, she is an OCAD Sculpture & Installation student and works as an instructor at different studios around the city. Bright and bold colour compositions are a trademark of her work, often paired with symbolism and a meticulous approach to surface design.  

"My research is heavily influenced by the world that surrounds us, which never fails to both delight and appall me. Extremely personal at times, this introspective body of work is born and bred inside my deepest, innermost thoughts and feelings.

Holding space for emotional exposure inspired by life experiences, therefore materializing them, has become the way I prefer to feel through them.

My creative path takes a broader place as I begin to observe subjects like ancestry, social dynamics and the beauty within vulnerability. In a way, my research illustrates some of the contradictions that have found me along the way”.
