Diana Wege, speaking at the
Jérôme Lohez Foundartion

Diana Wege is a New York-based conceptual artist who passionately uses her practice to express the nexus between the environment and social justice. She has shown her work at galleries and museums across the country and in Japan. She has also installed her work outdoors on the sidewalks of New York City.

Her work has been shown in solo exhibitions at the U.S. Department of the Interior Museum in Washington, Interlochen Center for the Arts in Michigan, and at Olana State Historic Site in New York, among others. Among her commissions are works produced for Eastern Connecticut State University, Michigan Botanic Garden, and El Centro de Estudio Ambiental in Costa Rica.

Wege is the founder of the nonprofits WOVEN and The NICE Program, devoted to conflict resolution, nonviolence, and nurturing an inclusive and safe learning environment in school communities.

This November, Diana Wege’s art will be featured in the American Pavillion at the Jerusalem Biennale.
