Angela Maray is an interdisciplinary artist based in Alexandria, Virginia. Her focus is primarily acrylic painting, incorporating abstract, figurative, and realistic approaches. She invites viewers to step beyond their self-imposed boundaries and embrace contradiction with consideration of the illusions and constructs that shape perception. Maray gravitates toward outlines, silhouettes, and pared-down forms as entry points to larger existential questions, intending to interrupt the trance of daily habit and routine with both a sense of surrender and a sense of freedom.

Maray's ongoing project, BATHUS, is a vision that centers on the definition of 'bathus' as both 'deep' and 'dawn' with experiences that encourage participants to journey inward, using the work as a mirror for their own landscapes of being, where self-mastery naturally emerges. Welcoming collaboration, BATHUS is an effort to redefine the art experience as action to collectively integrate honesty, accountability, and grace into everyday life.
