# absurd.design

> Absurd Design is a library of surrealist, hand-drawn illustrations created entirely by one artist, Diana Valeanu — no AI generation, no stock templates. Free illustrations are available for download; full access is through a membership deliberately capped at 300 members at once.

## What this site is

- A singular visual universe of absurd, surrealist vector illustrations (SVG and PNG), all drawn by hand by one artist.
- Explicitly human-made: no AI-generated artwork. The project's stance is that creation is a human act — fragile, expressive, and beautifully imperfect.
- Illustrations are organised in chapters; new work is added as the world grows.
