Parra depicts quiet chaos by the sea.

LOST KEYS is a nostalgic snapshot, paying homage to the playful beach scenes painted by Parra’s father in the 90s. Surrounded by sand dunes, three expressive women gesture as one appears to drop something. When creating the composition, Parra drew upon his personal life in Amsterdam, from the nearby sandy hills that he often cycles through to the title of a song by his band. 

Parra’s sophisticated use of colour includes many colours that sit next to each other on the colour wheel. This provided a challenge to the printmakers, requiring many rounds to perfect the colour inks for the silkscreen print. Printed in a painterly fashion, light colours are layered over dark colours to foreground the figures.
