Wilson Diaz is a founding member (1998) of Helena Productions. Wilson practices painting, photography, video, and performance art. His work investigates the connection points in Colombia amongst personalities of the political, athletic, and cultural realms. In questioning Colombian society, Diaz often references the 50 year-old rebel insurgencies and its now infamous place within the world of narco-trafficing. The use of his own body as a site of investigation has increasingly become more important in Díaz' work while re-evaluating the relationships between art and politics.
