Behind The Artworks: Ars Inferi - Spectrophilia (2025)

The cover is an original oil painting by French artist Hervé Scott Flament, known for his ability to portray the abject with unsettling beauty. It captures the essence of Spectrophilia: desire beyond death, surrender to the spectral, and the glorification of perversion as a path to spiritual liberation. The central figure is both victim and celebrant, trapped in a rite where pleasure and pain, love and damnation, merge as one.
