Diana Ordóñez (born 1987), known professionally as LEDANIA,[1] is a Colombian multimedia artist based in Bogotá. Known mostly for her graffiti murals, LeDania also works in photography, graphic design, advertising, artistic makeup, and decorative items such as clothing and accessories.[2]

Career

[edit]

LeDania is most known for her positive and vibrant graffiti murals,[3] most of which locate in Chapinero, a neighborhood on the north side of Bogotá.[4] Her graffiti often features animals and insects from Tasmania,[5] in addition to other mythological, magical, or autobiographical symbols.[citation needed]

Other than graffiti, LeDania's figurative works derive from three different artistic movements: expressionism, cubism, and surrealism.[6] The Museum of Contemporary Arts of Bogotá first exhibited LeDania's artwork in 2005.[7] Her work was displayed in 2019 at the Street Lynx Bta, a gallery space representing dozens of Bogotá-based artists.[8]
