Malleus is an Italian three headed collective spreading its tentacles through all kind of visual art, from illustration to videos, passing through hand-pulled screen prints. The iconography at the base of their work originates from a vast scenery including figurative arts, in particular Expressionism and Symbolism, Art Nouveau and Surrealism, Pop Art and Psychedelic Art, and also comics, photography, cinema and literature. All these ingredients blend in with the main element of their poetics; that is the female form, the primordial goddess, from whom everything comes. Blackened art nouveau mixed with elements of surrealism and quotes from the school of expressionism glowing in its amber, resulting in an almost psychedelically overwhelming experience of visual magick. All of the power trio's works are based on hand-drawings and reflect the artists' deep understanding and love for music.

"We have been inspired by the flowing music of Alice in Chains, its atmosphere and above all from the lyrics of "Down in a hole", a song of love and ruin written by Jerry Cantrell, that gave us the feeling of sinking into a fascinating and deadly abyss."- Lù Malleus. "Down In A Hole" was expertly silkscreen printed by Malleus in Italy.
