Oda Jaune - Oil of Angels

In a series of nineteen oils on canvas, Oda Jaune delves into a theme as timeless as it is universal: unconditional love.

Inspired by the poem “Touched by an angel” by Maya Angelou the paintings focus on the power of love through the fascinating prism of angels recognized by humans since the dawn of civilization and archetype of communication between mortals and the divine.

Originally from Bulgaria, Oda Jaune has spent the decade or so since her studies in Germany creating an audacious body of work, unshackled by convention. Her art is both poetic and visionary, travelling the twists and turns of the subconscious in a language that flirts with surrealism, inviting the viewer to explore emotions rarely held up to the light.
