“The selection of Parker’s works in this show, both old and new, demonstrates how the artist returns to and revives an understanding of what it means to live in a world that is shaped by power structures and underpinned by violence.

She has an awareness of physical tension and a sense of the tragicomic, and is able to approach dark and complex ideas with humour – making her conceptual works eminently approachable.”
