This is the first time any of Halsey's visual artwork is available for sale to the public.
"The characters are all inspired by figures that occurred in a series of sleep paralysis nightmares I had at home during the quarantine," Halsey said of the collection in a statement. The images draw from very dark themes, though they come out as sort of playful, colorful — albeit kind of creepy — characters.
"After seven years of bed surfing hotel rooms around the world, adjusting to my own pitch-black cave in California had a little bit of a learning curve. From toddler TV programming evil dentists, a child born with massive claws who scratched her way out of the womb, to a woman who stood at the foot of my bed and demanded I watch her masturbate," the artist described."They were memorable, to say the least.
A percentage of the proceeds from the"People Disappear Here" sales are going to be donated to organization, My Friends Place, which is dedicated to helping the homeless youth of Los Angeles. Part of the proceeds will also go to non-government organization Carbon 180, a group that wants to limit carbon emitions.
