PARKER

Tash Parker (PARKER) is a multidisciplinary artist and musician living and working in lutruwita/Tasmania She holds a Bachelor Degree in Fine Arts from RMIT and has garnered several significant national and international grants, awards and prizes including at the NY Film Awards, LA Film Awards, Melbourne Short Film Festival and Best Concept at Clipped Music Video Awards in 2019. In 2020 she received the Tasmanian Women’s Art Prize Emerging Artist award. Her current Body of Work is interrogating the relationship between the natural world and our perception of it through combining field recordings from journeys travelled layered with experiments of voice and music. These spacious and psychically charged soundscapes are heavily influenced by the localities of their creation and are paired with large-scale experimental video works for projection and screen installation. PARKER has co-produced her music releases with some of Australia’s top songwriters and producers including Wally De Backer (Gotye), Lachlan Carrick (Lior) and Becki Whitton (Aphir). “Parker is a powerhouse of retro-futurist electronica that absolutely soars with glossy synths and commanding vocals.” — Music Feeds "It’s no wonder Tash Parker is known as ‘one of the country's most versatile and consistent musicians" – Pilerats "Tash Parker's approach is collaborative and innovative- it's a new world order in making art" – Sawtooth ARI
