The way constructed space shapes our understanding of ourselves and our experience of the world drives Diana Davis’ engagement with architecture and visual art. Since the Renaissance, artists have placed their subjects against or within a constructed architectural setting, and the development of perspectival representation has directly influenced the way we comprehend our environments. As abstract art began to prevail in the twentieth century, representations of the built environment in visual art did not keep pace with our contemporary lived experience, outside of some notable examples such as the work of Edward Hopper, David Hockey, and others, who seek to address contemporary Western settings in representational painting. Her visual art is the product of her deep belief in the psychological power and impact of contemporary architecture and our physical engagement with contemporary objects. It seeks to capture the poetics of light and shadow that arise in unexpected ways from the sculptural forms of architecture and to obfuscate the classical understanding of subject and object. It alludes to the sense of personal isolation felt in our contemporary society and to the loss of the scale of the body as a measure of space. While utilizing a painterly technique and drawing on the tradition of oil on canvas painting, it also attempts to blur the line between representation and abstraction, much in the way contemporary architecture challenges traditional definitions of shelter.

Lia Rodi’s work is born of an intimate communion with the Wild and recorded through narrative abstract paintings. She conjures immersive and imaginary places through line-song, color tension, and mythological mirrors. Her paintings are autobiographical manuscripts that document scavenging for clarity and peace while seeking the primal, the natural, and the equilibrium provided by the sublime. Whether on foot or on canvas, painting is her medium to traverse and summit the metaphysical, cresting both the real and the imagined.
Rodi’s background as an architect plays a central role in the research and conceptualization of her work as well the application and mark-making of mediums. Distilling the essence of her multi-dimensional communion with the Wild and collapsing it on to a two-dimensional surface drives her work formally and experientially.
