“ The cosmic compass spins on a broken axle.
A drop of green at the root—the un-born nerve.”
Beside the Space
Digital Illustration Series
Beyond our rational consciousness lies a silent, sharp territory of the mind.
This illustration series captures the unfiltered shadows of our inner self—the thoughts and emotions that exist just "beside" our everyday space. Stripped of reality, the high-contrast silhouettes and symbolic halos serve as a visual anatomy of human solitude, tension, and quiet sanctuary.
“ A strict enclosure.
The vacuum is black; the ink is white.”
“ A ring of red above the hair—the silent wound.
The light in the center belongs to the waking world.”
“ It screams, it expands.
But we remain here,
where the skin of reality is thin.
Just beside it.”
