A genre of aesthetic that bases itself on concepts like nostalgia, derealization, surrealism, disorientation, and disassociation. This aesthetic is sometimes depicted with "
holy" imagery, playing into the senses of comfort or uneasiness depending on the viewer. It also displays a variety of bright, sometimes epileptic, color schemes. Visual representations of these scenarios are either created to express discomfort and/or eeriness, depict nostalgia referencing to common childhood themes (
ex, kidcore, playgrounds, toys...) or simply to follow a
strange trend. This concept is associated with liminal spaces regularly as
well. For a better idea of what it is, there are many references that you can find on
TikTok and Pintrest ^^
