Public installation · rabbit figures in multiple versions

Intrude: visual humor with an environmental argument

Parer’s Intrude uses oversized rabbits to contrast childhood associations of innocence with the environmental damage caused by an introduced species in Australia. The artist’s page separates small, classic, XL and XXL forms. A proposal should identify a particular set and version; the title alone does not specify dimensions or the number of sculptures.

Lost: an enlarged garden of threatened species

Parer describes Lost as monumental representations of extinct or endangered plants from around the world. Enlarging the flora places the visitor at a different scale within the garden. Her project page includes credited documentation from the Brisbane Festival in 2021 and Downtown Spark in Edmonton in 2024, giving dated exhibition references without establishing a present touring schedule.
