Student's Choice: Horror
Eerie, dark, disturbing, and horrific, are not what one expects when examining art in museums. Though art can be manipulated to depict what the artist wants it to be, one wouldn’t expect something eerie or unearthly. These feelings of the paranormal and bizarre can be portrayed across any art medium. Various prints, photographs, sculptures, and paintings, some of which are currently on display at DOMA, have that eerie feeling. Through this selection, one can find different mediums that exude a similar feeling of an unsettling and ghostly atmosphere.
