Wall of Fears
In January 2025, as we prepared for the “Darkness” exhibition in Seoul, we reached out globally, inviting individuals to anonymously share their deepest fears. Each submission was then thoughtfully paired with one or multiple artwork that resonate with the essence of that fear.
The Wall of Fears serves as a mirror to our shared vulnerabilities. As you explore below, you may find reflections of your own fears, reminding us that in facing darkness, we find connection.
If a piece speaks to you, it may be yours to keep. Limited artworks from this collection are available for acquisition.

FAQ
Is it AI art?
No. Given all the ethical controversies about AI (lack of consent from artists, stolen works), we make sure to select artists who do not use AI as their primary tool of work.
AI Network is one of our partners for exhibition purposes only.
I'd like to make sure an artist draws my fear. How can I request a custom painting?
Just contact Cynthia at hello@faerian.art to describe your need, and we will put you in touch with the right artist for you.
Do you plan on exhibiting in other places?
Yes, we’re open to all continents and countries, particularly Asia and Europe.
We have plans for Paris and London at the moment.
We will keep you updated about future exhibitions. We may add more artists and reopen the form in the future as time progresses.
Feel free to let us know via DM which city you’re in and would like us to visit.
