Erik Parker's vivid montages synthesise contemporary portraits with the hyper-saturation of modern media.

New Soul draws us into the world of a distorted couple, awash with abstract shapes in a mesmerising acid-hued tableau. Art historical references are juxtaposed by gaudy cartoon figures, telling of Parker’s ability to unite a myriad of styles and references. Each print is finished with a unique, hand-painted silhouette and textured gloss, completing Parker’s sensory explosion.

Behind the scenes

Erik Parker stands infront of his painting wearing glasses, beanie and white tshirt

Erik Parker2 collaborationsPaintings 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.
