Piet Parra Art
b. 1976
Piet Parra (born Pieter Janssen, 1976) is a Dutch visual artist, illustrator, and designer best known for his instantly recognizable graphic style defined by bold colors, surreal character forms, and abstracted typography. Based in Amsterdam, Parra emerged in the late 1990s from the skateboarding and street-art scenes, where his work first gained attention through board graphics, flyers, and album artwork.
Parra’s visual language blends playful humor with unsettling distortion. His signature figures—often featuring exaggerated limbs, floating eyes, and biomorphic shapes—sit at the intersection of fine art, graphic design, and pop culture. Despite their cartoon-like appearance, his compositions are carefully structured, balancing spontaneity with precise formal control.
Beyond illustration and painting, Parra has had a significant impact on contemporary design and fashion. He is a co-founder of the Amsterdam-based creative collective and label By Parra, which extends his artwork into apparel, textiles, and functional objects while maintaining strong artistic integrity. His collaborations span music, sportswear, and lifestyle brands, further cementing his influence across disciplines.
Parra’s work has been exhibited internationally in galleries and museums, and his paintings and prints are collected worldwide. Bridging underground culture and institutional art spaces, Piet Parra remains a central figure in contemporary graphic-driven art, known for transforming playful imagery into a distinctive and enduring visual system.to
