Automatism of a Bleak Mind

About the Book

Imagine living isolated without any way to read, to write, to cope with depression, or without anyone to talk to. This book is a dark automatism horror art journey of the subconscious mind laid out in pen and paper—a recollection of being on the brink of life, death, depression, pain, sorrow, hate, and agony, recorded through illustrations. This is a gateway away from mainstream art and into the abstract world of automatism. The tools used in Automatism of a Bleak Mind vary from rollerball, ballpoint, and gel pens on canvas/paper and are hand drawn by Louie V. T. The illustrations vary from 2012 to 2016.
