Ben Wheele (b. 1987, Ditchling) is a computer animator, visual artist and Youtuber based in the UK. He graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2011. His animated films have been screened at festivals internationally including Annecy, Pictoplasma, London Intl. Animation Festival, Rotterdam Film Festival and Stuttgart ITFS. His work has been exhibited at The Sunday Painter London and Casino Luxembourg, Gazell.io digital art space, and broadcast on Adult Swim and Channel 4 (UK).
"Using a range of digital animation techniques, Ben Wheele constructs a fantastical world of sinister creatures, dark humour and grotesque body horror. His work is often found lurking in the "dark side of YouTube," a little-known zone of mysterious videos, which generate all sorts of conspiracy theories and terrified reaction videos online."
