Christopher Reusch studied environmental protection before completing a Master’s degree in South Africa, where he learned the value of Observation. Afterward, unsure of his path, he began hiking barefoot in 2012 and eventually drew himself out of a depression a decade later, in 2022. Those early drawings felt almost demonic — frightening, intense, and strangely instructive. His first book, The Book of Fear, made that connection unmistakable, as if the work itself was guiding him to understand fear on a deeper level.
