Public Image

To the world, Ares is untouchable.

He’s the artist people write essays about online.

The celebrity fans obsess over because nobody can fully figure him out.

He rarely smiles during interviews.

Rarely posts personal things.

Rarely explains his songs.

Which only makes people want more.

The media describes him as:

emotionally unavailable,

dangerously attractive,

“the heartbreak musician of this generation,”

intimidating,

impossible to read.

People think he’s arrogant because he keeps distance.

But the truth is: Aarav learned very early that fame makes people love performances of intimacy instead of the real thing.

So he protects himself by becoming difficult to reach.

And somehow...

you still reached him anyway.
