Diana De Avila

Diana de Avila is an artist based in Sarasota, FL, who embarked on her artistic journey in 2017. During that time, Diana faced the challenges of relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS) and worsening traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, amidst these difficulties, her artistic gift suddenly and explosively emerged, fueled by acquired savant syndrome and synesthesia. Despite lacking formal training, de Avila has created over 2000 digital art pieces rooted in fractal geometry, drawing inspiration from the convergence of quantum physics, chaos theory, and divine order. Her cosmic digital art, both dynamic and serene, delves into various technological expressions of art. ​

Within the artistic movement "Techspressionism," founded by Colin Goldberg, she has found her "tribe," continually pushing the boundaries of her digital art and exploring innovative approaches to creation. Diana holds the title of Signature member in the National Association of Women Artists (NAWA) and is a National League of American Pen Women (NLAPW) member. She is also part of the Sarasota artist collective known as SArtQ and is represented by DEFINE Art Gallery in Sarasota, FL.

Diana is not only the subject but also the co-author of her award-winning book, "Soldier, Sister, Savant." This book shares her artistic journey and showcases samples of her art from 2017 to early 2021. Furthermore, in the summer of 2023, Diana and her co-author Wilma Davidson secured a publishing contract for their upcoming children's book, "Super Cat! Splat! Splat!," which is set to be released in the summer of 2024. Diana is also a proud US Army Veteran involved with various military artistic opportunities.
