This drawing by Ivan Drybas presents an evocative image of a voodoo doll adorned with glowing pins, immersing the viewer in an eerie, unsettling atmosphere. The deep blue background contrasts starkly with the light emanating from the pins, creating a sense of mystery and intensity. The doll’s expressive, almost human-like eyes draw the viewer into its world, while the surrounding details—such as the bottle and the symbols etched into its surface—suggest a deeper, ritualistic significance, hinting at magic or the occult. Drybas’s use of vibrant yet dark tones heightens the sense of otherworldliness, making the doll feel as though it belongs to a realm of unseen energy and hidden meaning.

The emotion conveyed through the piece is one of both fascination and unease, as the viewer is left to ponder the doll’s purpose and origin. Drybas seems to explore the fine line between the mystical and the macabre, with the doll embodying both power and mystery, possibly even a harbinger of something unknown. The sharp, deliberate linework adds a layer of tension, while the soft glow from the pins introduces an unexpected beauty amidst the darker elements. Through this work, Drybas captures a fleeting moment frozen in time—a mixture of wonder and fear—that invites the viewer to reflect on the unseen forces and hidden truths that exist beneath the surface.
