Aimée Parrott

Aimée Parrott’s primary practice comprises painting, printing and drawing. She approaches the canvas as a fragile and permeable boundary - a metaphorical skin or body that holds the trace of time, thought and gesture. Exploring notions of transformation, connectivity and exchange, Parrott makes use of the fluidity of the monoprinting process to create bodies of work where rhythmic gestures and forms repeat, seeming to echo; growing, fading, regenerating within a self perpetuating framework.

Recent works continue to explore the disjunction between internal sensations and exterior impressions with works that hover between gesture and form, suggesting hybridity, metamorphosis and a symbiotic blurring of boundaries. While some of her works read as abstraction, her sensitivity to representational motifs reveals an interest in the transformations found in ecological or geological structures and other matter. There are connections to the sea, repeated figurative gestures such as fossils and shells appear and landscapes resonate and recede, creating fluidity on the threshold of abstraction.

Parrott was born in 1987 in Brighton, UK, where she currently lives and works. Recent solo exhibitions include Waterborne, Parafin Gallery, London (2023) and Whitehawk Camp, Mackintosh Lane, London (2022).
