Diana Tremaine
The Alchemy of Belief

2016-2020

About the Item

Diana Tremaine’s large-scale, dynamic, figurative oil paintings reflect a search for truth and meaning in the human experience. She develops brushstrokes and marks by adding and then obliterating some of the story in a free-association editorial process of discovering what is most important and lasting. The melancholy images echo her experiences in an autobiographical fashion, but they are also universal and touch upon and evoke our collective memories like ghosts of what was. Created with a limited palette, there is visual poetry in her surfaces, including the tension that exists when simultaneously holding on and letting go. The bicoastal New York City-born artist studied and taught in both Northern and Southern California. She later moved to Montana—in a search for spiritual space and room to breathe—where she works and lives with her family and horses. Presented by the Andra Norris Gallery in Burlingame, CA.
