Kar-Thal is frequently portrayed in Orasian art, though rarely in full or literal form. Instead, artists emphasize the city’s underlying geometry, mass, and silence. Resonance painters, stone-dust muralists, and sculptors often represent Kar-Thal through abstract forms—layered arches, weight-bearing columns, and partial echoes of walls and halls. Glowstone halos or mineral shadows are sometimes used to suggest the presence of sacred districts.

Artists from other cultures often portray Kar-Thal with more literal detail: towering subterranean gates, vast chasm-plazas, and monolithic guardians. These depictions typically emphasize scale and mystery over ritual accuracy, blending reverence with distant speculation.
