Diane Etienne

Diane Etienne, born in 1993 in the Chartreuse Mountains, is a French printmaking artist based in Grenoble and the Auvergne‑Rhône‑Alpes region. She studied engraving at the École Estienne, then continued her training at the art schools of Angoulême and Marseille, where she focused on traditional and contemporary printmaking techniques.

She co-founded Atelier Mille Lieues, a mobile school for print arts, and is a member of the Super Coherent Printing Compagny, a ten-artist collective working collaboratively on printed artworks. In 2022, she developed the Fouilles project during an artist residency in Draguignan with Ateliers Médicis, creating a collective visual archive using wood engravings, collages, and printed images to explore landscape through poetic means.

Her work is nomadic and socially engaged, involving participatory projects in engraving, plant-based dyeing, monotype, and anthotype. She creates connections between local memory, printed gestures, and environmental storytelling.
