Diana Fonseca’s work often revolves around themes of time, memory, and urban decay. She repurposes fragments of her surroundings to explore the intersection of history and change. Her art highlights the physical and symbolic erosion of both personal and collective spaces, using these transformed materials as metaphors for resilience and the passage of time. In pieces like Atlas Mundi (2019), Fonseca examines humanity’s attempts to understand and chart the vastness of the world, inviting viewers to reflect on the boundaries of perception and the persistence of cultural memory.
