Dark Art for Your Walls

Art for those folks when dark mode is not just how you like your phone. Find wall art with a grittier aesthetic, or if you simply want to buy prints with darker hues. The roots of this movement are not recent, they go back to the 16th century Memento mori (Latin for 'remember that you [have to] die'), which is paradoxically a reminder to celebrate the life that we so fleetingly enjoy. Memento mori jewelry with skull or coffin motifs evolved into the artistic genre of vanitas, where symbolic objects such as hourglasses and wilting flowers signified the impermanence of human life.
