Dark art is not an official genre or ism (like realism, surrealism, impressionism). It is more about the subject matter and typically using darker colours.

Dark art is influenced by the supernatural, mythology, horror, nightmares, satanism, magical things, fantasy, sex, death or metal music.

For example Dark tattoo art is very popular.

Some dark artists prefer disturbing subject matters, others want to show the beautiful side of the dark world.

It can be digital or traditional and there aren’t any boundaries beyond your imagination. Let your fantasies become alive, no matter how twisted they may be.
