Angels are my theme for rather a long time now. I started in 2011 with a series on the angels of the six nights of Creation. After that my theme switched from the Creation to the Apocalyps, from the beginning to the end of history. For a year I made small works inspired on the illustrations that Beatus, a monk that lived in Spain in the 8th century, made for his version of the Apocalyps. And of course the angels returned, angels that wonder what happened to and is happening in the world. The angel of Pergamum is one of them.
