Lingua Franca and Tiny Pricks Project first joined forces in 2018 with an exhibition of protest embroidery that captured widespread media attention, including features in Vogue, WWD, The New Yorker, and Artnet, among others.
Diana has always had an extraordinary ability to meet the moment. While her political work remains deeply sought after, she's recently turned her attention to stitching the words of Americans who inspire hope, courage, and action. Her work continues to remind me, and thousands of others, that language has the power to connect us and move us forward. I'm incredibly proud to call her my friend and even more excited to share these new pieces with you.
Please note that Diana's work tends to sell quickly. If the piece you love is already spoken for, email sarah@linguafranca.nyc to commission a made-to-order piece stitched by Diana just for you.
And if you're in New York, we hope you'll stop by our flagship store and townhouse at 95 Jane Street in the West Village, where hundreds of Tiny Pricks Project works will be on view throughout the summer. The installation invites us to reflect on the cultural moment we're living through and explores the ways language can connect us, challenge us, and inspire action.
