Awesome and sometimes ominous, Parker-Salazar’s work dominates a space. These large sculptural pieces are primarily created by the painstaking process of cutting and shaping paper. Each slice and fold of paper is an act of construction and deconstruction. With references to contemplative spaces encountered in meditation. This work plays with light and shadow to literally dance around the space causing one to reflect on beauty and destruction.
