Working in series, she candidly documents her aging family in black-and-white in Relative Moments, the contents of a favorite thrift store in the colorful Wardrobe, and ballroom dancing in Ballroom, among other works. A sense of quiet longing and nostalgia infuses her work. Dikeman taught at the University of Missouri.
