THE READER 📕

A huge thanks to .zip for this incredible piece of TMP-inspired art! Check out Dante Void’s page for more like this. ☠️

Artist bio: “Dante Void is a Paris-based digital artist and art director whose work explores anxiety, hypochondria and the fears that inhabit everyday life.

Using art as a form of catharsis, she turns intrusive thoughts into raw, naive imagery, creating distance between herself and her anxieties. Her visual language is dominated by black and red, through stark, sometimes aggressive compositions where meaning takes precedence over beauty.

After years of creating for others as an art director, Dante Void emerged as a space for complete creative freedom, away from expectations, judgment and compromise.”
