"Dark art" refers to artistic expressions that explore themes of the macabre, the supernatural, and the eerie. This genre often incorporates elements of horror, fantasy, and the grotesque, aiming to evoke strong emotional responses from the audience. Artists may use various mediums, including painting, sculpture, and digital art, to convey their visions. Many dark artists draw inspiration from gothic literature, mythology, and folklore, creating works that challenge societal norms and provoke thought. Notable figures in this genre include H.R. Giger, known for his surreal and biomechanical designs, and Francisco Goya, whose later works reflect themes of darkness and despair.
