Description
Title: The Avenging Angel
Dimensions: Approx. 16 × 12 in.
Medium: Acrylic on recycled cardboard (24-can dog food box).
Style: German Expressionism | Figurative
Curatorial Text:
The Avenging Angel explores divine justice through the language of expressionism. Rather than portraying revenge as a human impulse, the figure represents God’s righteous judgment and His authority over good and evil. The elongated features, layered brushwork, and restrained palette create a presence that is both solemn and watchful, reminding the viewer that justice ultimately belongs to God. Painted on reclaimed cardboard, the work transforms an ordinary discarded material into a reflection on redemption, purpose, and spiritual accountability.
Bible Verse:
“Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written: ‘Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,’ says the Lord.”
— Romans 12:19 (ESV)
Ese versículo encaja muy bien con el título, porque deja claro que la venganza pertenece a Dios y no al ser humano.
