About

Born in India, Parminder gained a foundational art education in the United Kingdom and a BFA earned at UBC in Canada, Parminder has been producing work on and off for more than 30 years.

Since founding her new studio in Maple Ridge, BC, Canada in 2019, Parminder has been producing acrylic paintings and actively showing her work in both online and physical galleries.

Parminder’s paintings have been described as introspective and muse-worthy. Her Cloud series is meant to be a Rorschach exercise for the mind - bringing out the child-like wonder and imagination we all experience when we let go and just be in the moment. Observation of the natural world, juxtaposed against humanity’s mixed response of fear and awe inform her approach to making art.

Her new series under development - Glass Hearts - is a series of portraits using the texture of acrylic ink as a background and skin effect for the faces. The colours say something about the personality of the portrait subjects and their state of mind.
