Diane Victor is a major figure in contemporary South African art, with a talent for drawing and printmaking. Her works bear witness to the social problems endemic to South Africa and elsewhere, denouncing the shortcomings of a society marked by utopias, false pretences, corruption, violence and machismo. Renowned for her bold complex subjects, she skilfully examines the intersection of humanity and animality, exploring the concepts of metamorphosis and therianthropy.
