Indianapolis oil artist Parrish Cooper, and her show, “The Great Puzzlement” will be featured for the May IDADA First Friday Art Tour, May 6th. Admission is free. Cooper will offer cheese and wine will be donated by the Rural Inn. Known for hosting critiques in Indianapolis, Cooper will showcase her own abstract and representational work, often inspired by music, always inspired by curiosity, so that patrons can join her in her artistic journey. “Many of my artworks are about our relationship with modern technology, scientific thinking, and humanity’s place in the universe. Intagliation and process are essential for me,” says Cooper. “During the journey, I am excited and apprehensive, placid and enraged, encouraged and temporarily defeated until it is ‘good.’ When my artwork is ‘good,’ it is unforgettable! When it is unforgettable, I am satisfied.”
