Cooke Latham Gallery are thrilled to announce representation of Fani Parali.
Fani Parali (b. 1983 Greece) lives and works in London. She studied BA Sculpture at Camberwell College of Arts and completed her postgraduate studies at the Royal Academy Schools.
Parali's practice includes sculpture, sound, performance, large-scale painting, drawing and moving image. She creates situations where different medium components are choreographed, often through directing and collaborating with performers, where she employs the use of recorded audio that gets lip-synched. Parali wants to create a sense of intimacy, shared loneliness and warmth that can be felt through the mediation of the voices she imagines, creates and communicates. The performers and the materials aspire to transcend and overcome their identities, dimensions and realities, to be at the same time other-wordly and deeply human.
Her work 'Incubator/Flight' 2022 will be shown in the Hayward Gallery touring exhibition 'On Art and Motherhood' curated by @hettiejudah which opens at The Arnolfini, Bristol in March 2024.
Past exhibitions include AONYX and DREPAN & MINDERS OF THE WARM at Southwark Park Galleries in 2020 and 'Angels like Buildings' a performance at the ICA, London in 2019.
We look forward to hosting a solo exhibition with Fani at the gallery in 2024
