Chicago artist Scott Shellhamer, aka Yunicorn, was born and raised in the Midwestern fundamentalist dogma belt, and subsequently, his work deconstructs icons, and depicts dysfunction and despair. In the best tradition of other eerie surrealists, such as Stephen Gammell and Zdzislaw Beksinski – both of whom he cites as an influence – Shellhamer is self-taught and prefers traditional media, favoring raw emotion and an organic, undeniably human quality over machine-tooled precision. His works have been displayed in many Chicago galleries as well as international showings. In addition to producing dark, disturbing visuals, he also produces dark, disturbing noises as guitarist for “long-running and very unsuccessful” metal band American Heritage and used to play drums with indie instrumentalists Ghosts And Vodka. He also enjoys hoppy beer and befriending homeless cats. | Chicago artist Scott Shellhamer, aka Yunicorn, was born and raised in the Midwestern fundamentalist dogma belt, and subsequently, his work deconstructs icons, and depicts dysfunction and despair.
