COLLAGE ON VIEW<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rhonda Wall: How Can We Survive? Everything Happens at the Same Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

at the Martin Art Gallery at Muhlenberg College in Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA
28 August-6 October 2023<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rhonda Wall creates hybrids of factual and fictional subject matter in her work to transport the viewer to another place–an invented world where past, present, and future events merge into one, where everything happens at the same time. The paintings in “How do we survive?” were made immediately before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic (2019-2023) and reflect the public discourse surrounding a worldwide crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
