About this artwork
Angels come in many shapes and forms. In this painting Poor has chosen the image of a dove to symbolise the power and purity of light.
Poor's 'The Shadow Of Angels' exhibition was curated by art historian and critic Edward Lucie-Smith, it explores the mythology of angels, their universal appeal, their spirituality and presence in our lives. Their iconography is a unifying force throughout time and a connection in all religions and cultures. In these… troubled times, angels represent our need for reassurance, an illusion or reality in a very unstable world. They can be our protectors, guides, messengers or the dark mirrored side of demons; a manifestation of life and death or the true bridge to the Divine.
