Description Parmenter performed his 1990 solo work Wilderness. Thirty minutes, gripping an island rock with his bare toes, in the near-dark, provided a stark, visceral metaphor for the autobiographical battle with illness being out in a wilderness - that this work represents. … The duet Weather received its premiere.
