Buenos Aires-born, Miami-based Diego Waisman is a photo-based artist that explores themes of social and economic displacement, exile, family, identity, and origins. Much of his work revolves around the post-memories of his family diaspora and his journey as an immigrant to the United States.
His latest project, For I Shall Already Have Forgotten You, is an 100-page photobook that explores the disappearance and gentrification of South Florida’s Mobile Home Communities. He holds a degree in Computer Animation and Multimedia from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, a Studio Art degree from the University of Miami and is completing an MFA at Florida International University.
