Diana Copperwhite

Diana Copperwhite RHA (born 1969) is an Irish painter.

Her father, Patrick Copperwhite, was a science teacher and self-taught artist who exhibited at the Oriel Gallery.

[7] Copperwhite is chiefly known for her work in oil painting; art critic Gail Levin says that her work "creates an exquisite tension between abstraction and figuration or representation of any kind.

[…] vibrating spectral bands have become a kind of a trademark in Copperwhite’s recent large paintings […] Copperwhite believes that in her paintings she has responded to Ireland’s changeable weather, which may have caused her to see the world as if she was looking through a visor into a “grey low-light vision.

[11] Her work is on permanent exhibition at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Limerick City Gallery of Art and Áras an Uachtaráin (the residence of the President of Ireland).
