Louise Paramor graduated from the Western Australian Institute of Technology with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting (1985), and completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Sculpture at the Victorian College of the Arts (1988). Paramor has regularly exhibited her work nationally and internationally since 1988, and has been awarded several grants and international residencies including an Australia Council Fellowship at the Künstlerhaus Bethanien, Berlin,1999-2000 and an Australia Council Studio Residency, Greene Street, New York in 2011. In 2010 she won the prestigious McClelland Sculpture Survey and Award with her piece Top Shelf. She is well known for her monumental public art commissions, which often combine formal concerns with a pop-inspired sensibility. Large-scale commissions include Panorama Station, Peninsula Link Freeway, Melbourne (2012), and Transformer, Moreland Train Station, Coburg, Melbourne (2021). Her work was featured in last years’ Beyond exhibition, curated by Shelley McSpedden, Senior Curator, Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA) for the Melbourne Art Fair Foundation, as well as in the inaugural Melbourne Sculpture Biennale at Villa Alba, Kew
