Artist Bio:

Diana Haro is a multidisciplinary artist and award-winning filmmaker from Tijuana, Mexico. With a BA in International Affairs and a Diploma in Contemporary Art Production, her work spans film, sculpture, photography, and ceramics. Her debut documentary, Portrait of Absence, earned a grant from the Mexican Institute of Cinema, was workshopped at Plataforma and DOCSMX, and presented at the Museum of Moving Image, in New York, her production work won both the Grand Jury and Audience Awards at the 25th Dances with Films festival in Los Angeles. Diana’s sculptures have been exhibited in group shows, such as “Útiles Para el Desmantelamiento de la Visión” at Tijuana’s Cultural Center, CECUT, and can be found in private collections in both Mexico and the USA. Her work explores the construction of memory, identity, repetition, and time. She is a filmmaker member of Brown Girls Doc Mafia and continues to develop film and ceramics projects across Tijuana, Mexico City, and New York.

Artist Statement:

Storytelling through sculpture and video, Haro captures the tension between change and nostalgia. Her sculptural pieces incorporate clay and mirrors in intimate forms, exploring internal conflict and transformation as related to her past, family memories, identity, and hometown. Haro’s video work similarly pairs bittersweet archival footage and anamorphic footage of shuffling feet and empty streets in Tijuana, reflecting how trauma, over time, can shape our development, environment, and society. By representing internal battles as moments of stillness and absence, Haro reveals how a desire for change is often countered by the pull of permanence, creating a time and space where all transformation begins and ends.
