Daniel
Martin Diaz was given the unique experience of painting a Vietnam
Era Cluster Bomb, which he chose as his canvas, for Round Trip: Art
From The Boneyard Project. This original, life-size piece is a stunning
representation of the themes that Diaz brings to his paintings. “When
I stood the bomb up in my studio I realized how beautiful, quiet,
and graceful it was. Then I started to think about the psychologicl
aspects and the danger that comes to mind when we see one. With these
concepts, I set out to create a piece that encompasses the duality
of good and evil that we, as a society have battled with throughout
history.” A film by David Olsen documenting the creative process
and time-lapse painting of the bomb with interviews from Daniel Martin
Diaz, Paula Catherine Valencia, curators Carlo McCormick and Eric
Firestone, and Scott Marchand, Director of Collections and Aircraft
Restoration at Pima Air & Space Museum is forth coming. |

| "A
modern Visionary explores the power of mysticism, symbolism, and faith
using ancient techniques." In this collection of oil paintings, drawings, and prints, created between 1999-2006, Diaz contemplates the vast amount of human suffering and one's undying faith in the after-life. His mystical imagery reflects the influences of Byzantine Iconography, Retabalos, Ex Votos, The Illuminati, Ephemera, Alchemy, and 16th Century Anatomical Engravings. These powerful images are accompanied by a forward by Author, Art Historian, and Conservationist, Gloria Fraser Giffords, and an in-depth essay by Author, Professor, and Curator of Ethnohistory, Michael M. Brescia, Ph.D. . . |
