About the World of Rhaetia

What is Rhaetia?

Rhaetia is a multidisciplinary artistic universe born from the personal exploration and authentic narratives of four alter egos: Rhea Doll, Rhea Key 1024 (visual art & design, music & production), Princess Lili Rae (intimate storytelling & dark fantasy), and Nali Coei (performance & fiction).

Each nymph in Rhaetia's garden represents a Region of the world and a part of its creator's real story. Rhaetia is not just a brand, but also a narrative world where art, music, design, and literature intertwine, inviting visitors to discover stories of independence, healing, and self-determination.

All products, from art prints to digital goods, from music to stories, are created by the nymphs (or for the nymphs) and reflect the creepy&pouty aesthetic and emotional depth that characterizes the garden.

Who are the four alter egos?

Rhaetia is inhabited by four nymphs:

    • Nali Coei: The first nymph, born in 2016 from pure suffering. Author of diaries and infographic archives exploring identity and personal power.

    • Princess Lili Rae: The second nymph, voice of intimacy and mystery. Through her audio-visual content, she represents dark, intimate, and vulnerable narratives. She invites her followers to explore the beauty of solitude.

    • Rhea Key 1024: The guardian angel with numerous sub-manifestations. She experiments with music using art pop, synth wave, and dark ambient. In Rhaetia's garden, she creates the emotional soundtrack of this world: the creepy & pouty.

    • Rhea Doll: The nymph Mayor of the world. She creates illustrations, patterns, and items that capture Rhaetia's creepy & pouty aesthetic.

What are Rhaetia's thematic areas?

Rhaetia explores themes of independence and protection, healing from toxic relationships, alternative femininity, mystery, authentic intimacy, and self-determination. The aesthetic is creepy cute dark-romantic, inspired by pop surrealist art, fables, and the world's own narrative.

What is Roly Poly Magazine & TV?

It is an experimental editorial project that merges creative journalism, subculture, and audio-visual storytelling, by collecting media that contribute to the creepy&pouty database. It is currently under development.

Second life (recycling): the soft toys and dolls are second-hand, carefully selected, restored and reimagined by Rhea Doll. The project is not aimed at mass production, but at showcasing unique works of art; for this reason, some items may show signs of wear and imperfections.

Community: dedicated to creepy and pouty creatures, Rhaetia welcomes people of all genders, ages, sexual orientations, abilities, religions and ethnicities who identify with the concept of self-care through pop surrealist and dark-romantic aesthetics, within the safe space that the project presents as a lifestyle.

Expression: Rhaetia is open to all forms of artistic expression, whilst respecting its own aesthetic vision. The ‘creepy & pouty’ aesthetic is not a limitation, but a lens through which to explore the beauty of the imperfect, the melancholic and the tenderly unsettling. Here, expression need not please or conform to the mainstream: experimentation, the blending of artistic languages and the freedom to be oneself, even in one’s darker side are encouraged.
