Among the Serpents of Night
Caption:
The figure sits with head bowed, hands stained in dark gloss, as slick, serpentine forms coil and slither in the surrounding blackness. Above, leering shapes drip with slow, deliberate menace, their presence more felt than fully seen. At the figure’s feet, a pool of red light spreads outward, an island of quiet illumination in an ocean of shadow. This is the stillness that comes when the predators have already circled, and there is nothing left to flee from.
Artist Process:
The mood here is shaped by the interplay of threat and resignation. The hunched, static posture of the figure contrasts with the implied movement of the coiling forms, creating a tension between action and inaction. Glossy blacks dominate the palette, amplifying the reflective qualities of skin, floor, and serpent-like bodies. The pool of red serves as both a visual anchor and a symbolic pulse, grounding the composition while deepening its sense of foreboding.
