Samplerman is a Tumblr by French artist Yvan Guillo, known for his trippy reimaginations of vintage comic books. Scanned pages from old comics are digitally spliced up, stitched together out of context and put through kaleidoscopic effects, but still remain within the traditional comic book frames, in order to create something wonderfully bizarre.
His psychedelic collages range from vague narrative to unintelligibly trippy and abstract detours reminiscent of surrealist paintings. “I consider what I’ve done so far with Samplerman as an autopsy of old comics: by reorganising their components in a new way, it shows their inner energy in a new light,” Guillo said. Started as a happy accident, the Samplerman project has now amassed a huge archive of works which you can view at his Tumblr.
