Currently based in the UK, Joe Barker—also known as Worm—is a visual artist exploring a variety of mediums. His journey began with ink-on-paper creations using traditional ruler-and-compass techniques and has since expanded to include paint markers, acrylics, modern and classic animation techniques, color-theory-based light-reactive art, and more.

​

Positioned on the frontlines of human perception, Worm’s psychedelic abstractions utilise vibrant colours and intricate forms to explore the profound, the strange, and the interconnectedness of all things. By blending ancient methods with modern innovations, his work serves as a bridge beyond everyday perceptions—inviting viewers to glimpse unseen dimensions and engage with the deeper essence of consciousness itself.
