SANTIAGO CARUSO (Quilmes, Argentina 1982) cultivates a language of novel and personal rhetoric, although grounded in the symbolist aesthetics of the 19th century. Its production stands out as much for the discursive complexity as for the vigor of the technique. Dedicated to fantastique, his most important illustrated versions include: Jane Eyre (Folio Society); The Chants of Maldoror (Valdemar); The Dunwich Horror, The Bloody Countess, The Monk and the Hangman´s Daughter, The King of Yellow (Libros del Zorro Rojo); DARK MATTER (artbook), El Eco de mis Muertes (author edition); The Walls of the Castle, The Booking (Black Labyrinth). He has made book covers for Tartarus Press, Actes Sud, Planeta, Sudamericana and Páginas de Espuma. Also he develops album covers for various bands in America and Europe.

I created this LoRA to add a shade of surreal and mystique to my creations. It will by no means replace Santiago's artistic vision nor produce the same quality of art; this is nothing but a mere digital reflection of the potential of his ideas. The LoRA is quite powerful, I suggest using this version between 0.4 - 0.7 ('ish). I will work on other versions which I hope will render results at higher strengths.
