About the Item
In Night Swimmer with Goggles, acclaimed British contemporary artist Dan Parry-Jones captures a fleeting, contemplative moment of childhood. A young boy, standing at the edge of a stylized pool, is caught mid-gesture as he adjusts his goggles—readying himself for a nighttime swim under a full moon. The scene is set against a moody, atmospheric sky, with layered textures and soft grids evoking both memory and motion.
Parry-Jones’s signature approach to mixed media is on full display: architectural lines, worn surfaces, and bold color fields contrast with the delicate presence of the lone figure. His process merges screen print, collage, and acrylic paint, creating a compelling interplay between abstraction and narrative. The pool’s cool blues and the sky’s inky blacks are punctuated by mid-century-inspired color blocks, infusing the work with a sense of vintage California modernism.
Both nostalgic and fresh, Night Swimmer with Goggles resonates with collectors drawn to contemporary figurative work, coastal themes, and the visual poetry of youth and solitude. A striking piece for interiors that value texture, mood, and refined storytelling.

DAN PARRY-JONES (b. 1971, United Kingdom) A textured bright colour palette and sweet nostalgic figures brimming with images of palm trees, swimming pools and timeless Palm Springs-like mountainous scenery are all ingredients mixed media artist Dan Parry-Jones uses to create his memorable works of art. A graduate of University of Derby (1994, BA Hons in Graphic Design) and Winchester School of Art (1991), Parry-Jones is fascinated by the relationship between the manmade and nature. Parry-Jones experiments with a style of painting that continues to evolve after spending time in Europe, particularly southern Spain; these new paintings juxtapose elements both organic and artificial, as panoramic mountain ranges provide a backdrop to flat, still pools and brightly painted walls. His work bears the same stylistic hallmarks that draw influence from Richard Dierbenkorn and Robert Rauschenburg, with shapes of flat colour set against highly textured areas where paint and glued paper has been scraped back to reveal many layers beneath. In sharp contrast to this scarred and sanded background, are sharply focused areas of screen-printed detail featuring his distinctively nostalgic subject matter; kids, cars, buildings, that bring the viewer back to a bygone time on the fringes of our memory. Dan Parry-Jones is based in Bristol, United Kingdom and is represented by DECORAZONgallery.
