My name is Parker Greenwood and I am an artist born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Tulane University. I have done a great deal of work in glass, photography, and printmaking.

Going to my first electronic show, I had the feeling of being in an intangibly massive space. The lights, projections, screens, and smoke came together to construct an experience that felt unreal. Defining this space was the creation of a feeling of connectivity brought about by the collective focus on the artist’s show. Yet this new realm brought before me, rooted in reality, was a space I would never be able to return to.

These surreal environments are largely the result of the interplay between lights and objects. My current work then aims to evoke similar environments through both photographic work and live setups.

For some of my work, imagery from modern music production is run through an audio processor. Allowing the sound to redefine the space, I take these new representations and project them into my crafted environments. Honing in this process, modern projection mapping became integrated into much of the rest of the work. During the making of these spaces I am actively engaged in the creation of my own glass and metal elements to project onto. Initially the projection placements were relatively random as I attempted to find the most effective angles to shoot from. The newer work is set up with a viewer’s perspective in mind beforehand. As a result, the crafted environments themselves have become a part of the body of work. Actively engaging in the transformation of a space, these acts become connected to the moments that originally impacted me.
