Angels of Forbidden Light
The artwork presents four female figures dressed in white, suspended between the image of angels and mysterious, almost forbidden beings. Horns, cages, dark branches, and white flowers create a world in which purity and danger coexist. Here, white does not represent innocence alone, but also strength, renewal, and presence. Deep black, gold, and blue tones introduce dramatic tension and emphasize the contrast between light and shadow, freedom and confinement, delicacy and power. Each figure embodies a different expression of femininity soft, proud, mysterious, or seductive and together they form a visual ritual of freedom, beauty, and identity. “Angels of Forbidden Light” is a work about women who do not seek to fit an external idea of perfection or purity. Instead, they choose to hold both their light and their darkness and transform both into power.
HODAYA AVITON
I create in a deeply intuitive way. My artworks begin with something that happens within me a feeling, a thought, a question, or a personal experience. From there, they move outward and meet the world. It is precisely the encounter between my inner world and the external world and sometimes the tension between the two that inspires my work. From this space emerge questions that continuously occupy me: Who are we? What do we believe in? Where do we belong? And how do love, identity, religion, and faith shape the way we see ourselves and the world around us? My creative process is long and multi-layered. It begins with traditional materials, where I create a pencil drawing. I then photograph the work, digitally paint and edit it using professional software, integrate AI as part of the creative process, refine it through further digital editing, and finally produce a high-quality print. Some works are completed with hand-applied markers and paint, adding additional shading, texture, and depth, making each piece unique. I do not always know where a work will lead me. Sometimes I begin with one emotion and discover something entirely different by the end of the process. Perhaps that is why, for me, every artwork becomes a gateway to a world I have not yet discovered.
