The world has been swallowed by strangeness. A new reality-a "horror reality"-has taken hold. David Peak's The Spectacle of the Void examines the boundaries of the irreal and the beyond, exploring horror's singular ability to communicate the unknown through language and image. It is also a speculative work that gazes unflinchingly at the inevitable extinction of mankind, questioning whether or not the burden of our knowing we will someday cease to exist is a burden after all, or rather the very notion that will set us free.
