The Published Works of Circumnavigate the Abyss

The Dead Valley

19 February 2026

A short story written in 2023. This was originally written for a film, but these kinds of stories are very hard to produce for a single animator. So, i decided to prepare it in book form. If you're a fan of literary fantasy, desert tales, Gods and myth, this may be for you.

Circumnavigate the Abyss : A collection of poems

4 December 2025

Circumnavigate the Abyss : A collection of poems — A book for the weak at heart.

For many years there have been physical copies of this poetry book doing the rounds, but it was never officially published. Finally, you can now read it on Kindle.

On the cover is a generated fractal from natural materials, initiated and captured by me.

A visionary poetry book.

facing the launcher :

A daunting task it is,

to fly rockets, up into the air...

A Beast is Rising

9 October 2025

A beast is rising ; who knows where it will end?

A strange creature, dark and shadowy...

high above the landscape.

With glowing orange eyes,

it sees all that happens, beneath.

A poem and a watercolour painting of a creature that hovers over a landscape.

Circumnavigate the Abyss, The Illustrated Chronicle.

Another manifestation of this creature can be seen in the Animated film,  The Spaceman and The Street Sweeper...

The Haunting Trajectory

8 August 2025

A Human with a space helmet,

and an early hominid skull,

combines into a trajectory,

that haunts every person alive...

An Existential poem ; a pencil sketch on paper of a human with a space helmet, and an early hominid skull, and a combination of the two drawings in the third sketch. 

Worn paper and rust marks and an accidental space rocket in the corner. A story of mystery and meaning...

Dawn

A sunrise of colours, like a rainbow, rises into the starry abyss. A new beginning — perhaps, you can feel that too.

A colourful and expressive oil painting of a sunrise over a landscape, which is the first artwork for Circumnavigate the Abyss, The Illustrated Chronicle — An art comic series, that interweaves with the Animated Series. 

This painting predates Circumnavigate the Abyss, but was instrumental in its creation. More on these early artworks in the future...

Walk home at night, while stars explode...

7 April 2025

First, a star explodes out in space, then we see the same cosmic event again, this time from Earth, while a person walks home at night, in the heart of a city...

This is a very short film — about 30 seconds... Regardless of the duration, the film states quite a lot in such a short time. 

I've written a short piece about it, that you can only find on Patreon. 

But first, watch the film for free, to see what you can pick up on...

The Spaceman's path crosses with the Street Sweeper, who has found strange and unexplained occurrences in their environment, as a mysterious creature lurks overhead...

This is a film, and the first in the Circumnavigate the Abyss Animated Series. 

You can watch the film for free on Patreon.

Yours Sincerely
