Erik Parker
2 collaborations
Paintings by Erik Parker are loud, assertive and trippy. He layers images into psychedelic collages, often incorporating geometric forms like pyramids. Neon figures melt into and obscure each other. His references are stock photos sourced from the internet. After sketching them onto canvas, the artist manipulates them into intricate compositions. They are then painted in acrylic in a flat, graphic style. Visually, Parker references graffiti, cartoons and comic books. Many of his inspirations stem from his childhood. Counterculture in particular, including punk rock, hip hop and skateboarding.
