Jumper
An avalanche of day-glo colours is fighting through the wall to give you a hug. Is it a painting or sculpture? Perhaps it is a sculpture about painting. The paint, canvas and stretcher are all there, but rather than sitting politely on the wall as a flat decorated surface, or pretending to be a window into an imaginary space beyond, Miranda Parkes’ work flops and billows into the viewer’s space. It is not going to let you walk by and ignore it after a quick glance. It is going to grab you and smother you between its undulating folds.
