Currently based in the UK, Joe Barker also known as Worm, is a visual artist exploring a variety of mediums. His artistic 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 utilize vibrant colors and intricate forms to explore the profound beauty, strangeness, and interconnectedness underlying all things. By combining ancient methods with modern innovations, his unique style of work invites viewers to journey beyond their everyday perceptions, serving as a bridge to unseen dimensions of reality and encouraging a deeper connection to the metaphysical essence of consciousness itself.
