Parafin's primary focus is on its exhibition programme – placing an emphasis on rigorously curated solo shows and ambitious group exhibition projects - but it also publishes catalogues and initiates and supports institutional projects for its artists. The gallery represents a broad range of artists working across many media, from emerging artists such as Indre Serpytyte, Fred Sorrell and Hynek Martinec, to major figures such as Tim Head, Hamish Fulton and Nancy Holt. Within a diverse array of artistic strategies two key strands perhaps emerge: contemporary painting and practices associated with the inception and legacies of Land and Conceptual art.
