Grim. My personal favourite. And no, I didn’t pose for this.

Abomination Imagery is the name of the internet platform from which the visual manifestations of the nightmarish imaginings of Bahrull Marta are launched upon the world.

Bahrull Marta is a self taught artist from Jakarta, Indonesia. His first published work was digital photo editing for metal band Funeral Inception – H.A.T.E album records back in 2008. He started the art journey when he was in college, exploring in various medium and techniques through the years from digital photo manipulation to mixed media painting. His personal artworks are describes as abstracts, dark nuances and distorted figures and portraits that are layered in textures. He is also known as Abomination Imagery for his design studio in heavy music artwork as an album cover artist. His artwork has been published in album covers, art books, magazines and exhibited in several galleries.

From Mr. Marta’s extensive portfolio, tonight’s Dark Sentiment is a selection of some of his work that has particularly spoken to me, drawn from the darkest places of superstition, religion, depravity, and madness.
