Diana Thorneycroft (born 1956) is a Canadian artist based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, whose work has exhibited nationally and internationally.[1] She works primarily in photography, drawing, and sculpture/installation and makes photographs of staged dioramas to explore sexuality and national identity, and even, national icons such as the Group of Seven. Her work blurs the lines between gendered bodies by employing phalluses.[2] She is also an educator: she worked as a sessional instructor at the University of Manitoba's School of Art for 25 years.
