Description

The Four Watchful Angels

presents a powerful lateral composition of four angelic figures whose role is not intervention, but vigilance. These angels are always watching—awake, alert, and omnidirectional—resembling owls in their ability to see in all directions at all times. Their gaze is continuous and unwavering, embodying spiritual awareness rather than action.

Rooted in German Expressionist language, the figures emerge through layered brushwork, muted flesh tones, and abrupt eruptions of color that fracture the surface. Their faces are introspective, solemn, and alert, suggesting beings that exist beyond time, assigned to observe the unfolding of human existence without judgment or interruption.

The breadth of the composition reinforces the idea of expanded vision. This is not a frontal confrontation but a sustained presence, where the angels collectively guard perception itself. They do not sleep, they do not turn away. Their watchfulness becomes a symbol of conscience, memory, and spiritual protection—forces that remain present even when unseen.

These angels do not announce themselves. They remain, silent and vigilant, watching all that unfolds.
