I am not asking for Forgiveness, 2009

I am not asking for Forgiveness, 2009

details about this work


Louisa Parker is based in Leeds, Yorkshire


Using sound, installation, performance, drawing and bookworks I create a heightened experience of the art event. I often work with architectural space and public events. Books and drawings are tactile and interactive. I am mining for emotional affect and my work can be atmospheric and unsettling. Video documentation of soundworks can be found on Youtube.
