Angélique Nagovskaya

Overview

Angélique’s new series of maze-like augmented scapes symbolize the limited nature of human perspective - how we can become entangled in the world of senses and desires, losing our way, taking the “wrong” path. The disorienting turns represent times when we feel lost and desperate, our inability to see the full picture or our connectedness to each other. Yet, if we traverse patiently, the portals suggest it may be in those bewildered moments that we paradoxically become open to insight.

 

Though the passageways may confound our usual composure, like any labyrinth, Nagovskaya’s works all lead to a hopeful center if we persevere. For in confronting the uncertainty inside the canvas maze, we must reckon with the liminality inside the soul’s maze. Angelique’s emotive landscapes hold up a mirror to the unpredictable topography within us all, evoking nostalgia for some forgotten but innate inner wisdom. The crisscrossing paths earningly offer an opportunity - the promise that in our bewilderment, the chance for wisdom awaits if we but stay the winding course.
