Curatorial notes
Maria Bozoky made ‘Apocalyptic Angels’ with watercolor and ink on paper, and it’s a really special piece. I love the way the angels are drawn with these soft, flowing lines, like she's letting the ink guide her. The colors are muted, almost like a faded memory, but there's this intensity in the angels' faces. You can see the process so clearly, every brushstroke, every line tells a story. Look at the dark, almost violent strokes around the edges, and then how they cradle these gentle, pale angels. Bozoky contrasts chaos and serenity. The ink bleeds and blends, creating this ethereal, otherworldly feel. It's like she's capturing a moment of immense change. It puts me in mind of William Blake; both artists share this vision of a world filled with spiritual intensity, but Bozoky’s touch feels rawer, more immediate. Art like this reminds us that we can find beauty even in the face of destruction.
