Covenant of Night

Darkness comes not just to blind,
But to cradle thought, to still the mind.
A velvet hush, a breath, a sigh—
The place where broken stars still lie.

A black-and-white ink drawing portrays a woman’s head and upper body, seemingly fused with technology. Thick cables extend from the top of her skull, disappearing out of the frame. Her face appears cracked and fragmented, as if she were a delicate, damaged android. One arm, also seemingly mechanical, rests on the ground, partially broken. Ink washes create depth, emphasizing the stark contrast between organic and synthetic elements. The artwork conveys a sense of disconnection, as though she is both powered by and imprisoned by the cables tethering her.

Plugged in, but tuned out. We all have such days...
