🕯️ DESCRIPTION
This grotesque horror illustration depicts a decaying skull completely overrun by parasitic worms, crawling through the eye sockets, nasal cavity, jaw, and ruptured flesh. The skull appears neither alive nor fully dead—suspended in a state of endless corruption, consumption, and rot.
Rendered in brutal black-and-white engraving style, the image emphasizes biological horror and existential decay. The worms act as symbols of inevitable consumption, erosion of identity, and the loss of self beyond death. Fluids drip from the skull as the parasites claim it entirely, transforming the remains into a living vessel of infestation.
The hollow eyes and open jaw create a silent scream, while the tangled mass of worms blurs the boundary between body and invader. This artwork embodies themes of decomposition, nihilism, and the terror of becoming nothing more than sustenance for lesser life.
Raw, confrontational, and unapologetically extreme, this piece is ideal for fans of underground horror, death metal, black metal, and body-horror aesthetics.
