Pia Pack’s work explores how we are held together—through memory, structure, and shared experience. Returning to ideas of social connectivity, she uses painting, drawing and installation to examine the systems, both visible and invisible, that support community and belonging.
Referencing the visual language of modernism, Pack employs the grid as a resilient framework—flexible enough to carry personal histories and collective narratives. Her compositions reflect the complexities of human connection through layered repetition, variation, and spatial rhythm.
Community is central to Pack’s practice. Her podcast What Artists Listen To and her role in bringing the female art collective Binder of Women to the UK underscore her commitment to collaboration, visibility, and mutual support among artists.
