These works were created by digital artist & photographer Wilhelm Scream. He uses found imagery, artificial intelligence and his camera to create surreal works that range from the liminal to the totally abstract. His work is inspired by pop-art, dada and the surreal, and it brings those movements into the modern day with digital tools. Mr. Scream is also inspired by Mike Winkelmann, known professionally as Beeple. because he firmly believes in the philosophy of creating art on a daily basis. Like Beeple, Wilhelm Scream is a professional name. His real name is Sam Garbus.
Scream first found his footing in digital art after he took a photography class, and the professor encouraged him to push his editing to the limits. With his professor’s guidance, he was able to see what compositions he could create with plain images like photos of the ground or a wall. This exercise helped him learn some basic digital editing skills with tools such as Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. He soon started commissioning logos, and he decided to use those logos in some of his fine art work. Before graduating from college, he advanced his style and broadened his range of tools. He is currently working as a UX design intern, and he pursues his fine art career on the side.
