DIANE RABIDEAU-WISE Artist Statement COLLAGE: materials sought, found, collected, ripped, cut, torn, fragmented, pasted, glued, layered, painted, incised, and transformed into a new presence. My images depict places seen at home and abroad, people encountered and objects interpreted. The materials I use to create images, include personal mail, paint, original art work and photographs, trash and otherwise useless paraphernalia. The meaning of each work viewed is determined by the viewers reflection on their life experiences. Diane Rabideau-Wise is a painter and mixed media artist from Jacksonville, Florida.
