This piece is a visual exploration of Edgar Allan Poe’s evocative line from Ligeia: “There is no exquisite beauty without some strangeness in the proportion.” I wanted to blend romantic, gothic, and melancholic imagery, capturing the delicate interplay between light and dark, joy and sorrow, within the human experience. I hope that its haunting beauty invites you to contemplate the intricate balance between opposites.
