Josiane Dias

Josiane Dias is a Brazilian photographer currently based in Brasília. Since 1993, when she left her hometown, Curitiba, she has lived in Geneva, Tokyo, Tel Aviv and New York City. Living in so many different cultures has influenced her photography in different levels.
Her work is inspired by the urban and natural landscape but not in a straightforward sense. She looks for the unnoticed and the unexpected detail of these landscapes, for something ephemeral yet permanent.
Dias studied at the International Center of Photography and at the National Academy School in New York, NY.
Her work has been featured in several exhibitions in New York, including the National Academy Museum, Soho Photo Gallery, Sonia Gechtoff Gallery, United Nations Headquarters, and is included in private collections.
