Kate Parsons’ work amalgamates sculpture and anthropological research across cultures, specifically in the UK and East Africa. Having worked in Kenya, she went on to assimilate similarities and differences from both cultures, with a specific focus on how human mortality is depicted through contrasting imagery, materials and forms. Her unique approach is influenced by an interest in semiotics. Parsons exhibits nationally and internationally, having trained at Chelsea School of Art and Goldsmiths College, London.
