This project draws from the gothic atmospheres of The Masque of the Red Death and Frankenstein, translating their sense of dread and the unknown into a visual language of asemic writing. On the broadside, text is treated as form rather than content, marks, rhythms, and gestures that resemble language but resist readability.
The compositions focus on density, repetition, and flow, creating a system that feels intentional yet unstable. This tension produces an uncanny effect: something that looks familiar, like writing, but remains inaccessible.
The work positions typography as image, where meaning is not read but sensed emerging through atmosphere, texture, and visual weight rather than literal interpretation.
