COLLAGE ON VIEW<\/p>\n

Rhonda Wall<\/h2>\n

New Works, from the series, “Everything Happens at the Same Time” at RE:find Gallery on the Walk in Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA, 12 October-4 November 2018<\/h3>\n

About her work, Rhonda Wall says: I research and collect images, headlines, and visual phenomenon based on a specific idea and theme for a series. The images come from books, magazines, newspapers, the Internet, covers from videos, and anything else I come across that fits the concept in some way. From Women Androids, Aliens and Robots to historical figures, pop icons, scientific breakthroughs to religious symbols, advertisements from the 1960s, space exploration to political campaigns, natural disasters to greeting cards, I pick things that are particular to the situation at that moment. There is a logic to the selection process, although it may not seem apparent at first glance. A piece of collage is like a tube of paint, just another material to use. It will come down to what works formally.<\/p>\n

Specific events, stories, inventions, and the dynamic of technology versus nature inspire and affect me–for example: the disappearance of a Malaysian airplane, the Ebola epidemic, the Eclipse, solar panels, Human Rights and IED detection. In the studio, I\u2019m not afraid of anything. I like that things are unpredictable, like a game, a challenge.<\/p>\n

At one point, I\u2019ll ask myself \u201chow is this game going to end?\u201d It just has to play itself out; I am an observer and a participant. In the end, my work has always been and continues to be about survival.<\/p>\n
