Diane Barker is a photographer and artist based in Worcestershire, England. After studying Art History at the University of East Anglia and receiving an MA in Birmingham for a photo project recording the marks made by man on the landscape, she went on to make a living as a painter, using photography as an aid. She later came to see photography as a medium in its own right, a means of being out in the world with people, particularly the Tibetan nomads. Diane’s works are held in private and public collections around the world.

'Diane Barker's sensitive and exquisite pictures of Tibetan nomads are a beautiful tribute to a beautiful people whose lifestyle, culture, and identity are increasingly under threat and yet belong to the world's spiritual heritage.' -Matthieu Ricard, writer, photographer, translator and Buddhist monk. 'Many Tibetan people have never seen their homeland, and for them Portraits of Tibet provides a context that is rarely seen - a vital lens through which they and others will be better able to understand the culture and real-life experiences of its people.' -Yeshi Jampa, Taste Tibet. 'These photographs are a valuable insight into a world where a land and its people are still bonded together, holding what is sacred, as well as expressing a deep kindness and joy.' -Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee, Sufi teacher and author.
