ABOUT
the diathesis is an online blog focused on young artists based in Botswana's highest learning institution. Tarryn Fisher wrote, ''Art is the blood that comes from a wound. You can't let it scab; let it keep bleeding. let it bleed until you have enough blood to paint with.''. We feature artists 'under-campus' with a bleeding diathesis for art.
