Dhiyanah Hassan | Art & Illustration
Dhiyanah Hassan (dee-ya-nah ha-san, she/they) creates art that celebrates diversity and encourages decolonized reclamation of the imagination. Their art is their way of speaking to and for Life. Dhiyanah lives in Malaysia and makes work while navigating disabilities and chronic pain, realities that inform their multi-disciplinary studio practice and processes. From beauty and curiosity to grief and mystery, Dhiyanah's art exists as portals of wonder where subtler emotional realities can be seen, explored, and accepted.Dhiyanah's art and writing have appeared in various online and offline platforms. They recently won third place for 2024's Dream Foundry art contest as an emerging SFF artist. When not making art, they can be found lounging with their cat, who will probably be slightly annoyed they brought along a book to the cuddle party, negotiating with yarn for crochet, and self-soothing with hot cups of tea.Specializing in hand-drawn 2D traditional and digital illustrations, Dhiyanah is accepting commission and project proposals - early bookings are prioritized. They are excited about working on book covers, publication illustrations, kid lit art, and private art/gifts.
Offline version of booking form, or a 15-30min consultation call to discuss commission briefs are available upon request. Please connect via social media to send a request.
