Diane Victor


Diane Victor served as the Arthur L. and Sheila Prensky visiting artist in the spring of 2018. A master printmaker herself, Diane dove into new materials while working with Island Press. Early experimentation at the start of her residency involved silk aquatints and small-scale etching on steel, both new processes to Victor. The final print edition produced from the residency is a large-scale etching on steel titled Beware the Lap of Luxury, proving Victor’s virtuosity with drawing, etching, and biting social critique.
