Pat Street attended Brown University and then studied at the Art Students League and the School of Visual Arts in New York City. Since 1977, she has worked in several demanding media, including oil portraiture, egg tempera, photography, and reductive silkscreen printing. She has exhibited in outdoor art festivals (including the Walt Disney World Festival of the Masters) as well as in juried/invitational gallery and museum shows (most recently in a one-person exhibition, "Small Wonders: Digital and Traditional Collages by Pat Street" at the Mount Dora, FL, Center for the Arts; "For the Love of Art" at the Avalon Island Gallery in Orlando; "Digital 2002" at OVAL Gallery in Orlando; "Paste and Pixels" at Core Gallery in New Paltz, NY; two group shows at the Orlando Museum of Art; the "Art Three By" exhibition at Maitland Art Center; "Digital Images: Art in the Electronic Age" at the City of Brea Gallery, Brea, CA; and "Third Wave Benefit Exhibit," A.I.R. Gallery, New York City).

UPCOMING: "Ninth International Exhibition of Contemporary Collage:" in Paris and Sergines, France, in April-May 2002.

Several major corporations own her work, including Ralston-Purina, Inc. and Binney & Smith, Inc. The City of Orlando recently purchased her traditional collage "Azsia" to hang in Orlando's new City Hall. She is a member of the Orlando Visual Artists League [OVAL], the Digital Fine Artists Association, the National Association of Independent Artists, and the National Association of Photoshop Professionals.

Since 1997, Pat has been working in both traditional and digital collage, continually inspired by items in her collection of evocative antique paper. She is intrigued by the way different graphic and textual elements "speak to" each other when juxtaposed; by the compositional balance of positive and negative spaces; by the poignant faces of the people who lived a century ago; and especially, by the echoing and changing of human hopes and concerns across time.
