My paintings are visions of subatomic particles, microcosmic atoms and cells that make up the universe, the Higgs Bosun Field. Layered circles are the primary means by which I create the illusion of space in my work and reference the subconscious.

About
Erin Parish (b. 1966, USA) explores atmospheric and liminal spaces. Her subtly layered works of resin and mixed media offer a sense of quietude and depth. This is true for her paintings as well as her sculpture.
Parish's work is envolved in the act of looking, of seeing, of curiosity. The artist wants the viewer to approach her works from the point of view of a child, without expectations or bias, unsullied by the noise of humanity.
These geometric forms are free from narratives, autobiography, or symbology, which sustains a universality. She wants an even interpretation by all viewers, unencumbered by politics and the like. She uses forms from Sacred Geometry and coloration from the natural world to achive this.
Inspired by the diverse manifestations of the ocean, the contemplative principles of Buddhism, and the aesthetics inherent in Japanese Wabi Sabi, her work focused the repetition of geometric forms, reflecting their correspondence at both microscopic and macroscopic levels.
Glossy resin surfaces and vivid colors attract the eye, while abstract forms appear to shift and move endlessly across the surface. The circular shapes are enlivened through techniques of repetition, layering, and transparency. In this manner, Parish establishesa space for abstract experience and metaphysical contemplation.
Parish currently works and resides in Miami Beach. She received her BA fromBennington College in Vermont and her MFA from Queens College in New York. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and featured in publications including The New York Times, Artnews, Art in America, and others.
