“Miranda Parkes is known for her exuberant, brightly coloured abstract works which walk a fine line between painting and sculpture... Her playful and sensuous works engage knowingly with modernist painting traditions, toying with such shibboleths as ‘flatness’, decoration and the relationship between the ground and the figure”
(Robyn Pickens, Art Space 2008)

With colours that have come out of the margins, Pearler flirts with the decorative, upsetting hierarchies of form and material. As the canvas is bunched and distorted the work is undone, disturbed and unraveled, suggesting destruction but resulting in elegant objects.
(Miranda Parkes, 2009)
