ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Aglaia of Rome Boniface was one of Aglaida's slaves. The name Aglaida is sometimes given as Aglae. Both were pagans and lived in debauchery together; some legends say they were lovers. Tiring of their way of life, both discovered Christianity as a meaningful way. Aglaida decided to send him on an errand to collect holy relics. Finding upon arrival at Tarsus that the authorities were torturing Christians, he openly declared himself to be a Christian. His own body constituted the relics that were brought back to Aglaida, who in turn became a Christian. In his memory she constructed a church, which today is the Church of Santi Bonifacio e Alessio. She distributed her wealth to the poor and lived in a monastery for 18 years. She apparently received the divine gift to exorcise evil spirits.

NISUS about Nisus graduated in visual art in Saint Petersburg, Russia. She lives and works in England. "I found England to be the green and pleasant land I love, the gloominess in the autumn walk, the spirit of England, the people, the humor ..." Nisus L'art art has been exhibited in the UK, EU and Russia. At present her works are presented by Blanca Lucia Bergman for USA and for UK and EU Mr Jeffreys ​ She has done various works for collectors across the globe. Her art shows the essence of the person and the demonic counterpart. Nisus works in different media, she enjoys the feeling of many different textures. "I know every artwork comes to me with it's own message which expresses the emotion in a way that holds it best, people say to me that they see themselves in my art" Nisus "I know that you may not find that sweet heart or sweet sunshine moods in my work, I paint the emotions that we want to throw away. The power in that one static moment when a tear burns the eye and leaves the red scar on your soul - that moment reveals my art, I wish to take the mask away and to manifest the hidden true faces, sad or scary, the expression of the tempted, tainted or damaged souls " Whether it's the textures, emotion expressed, or the dark beautiful, distressing or provocative, Nisus's art is something to be admired and appreciated for what it really is: human emotions, those disturbing strings, gentle melancholy or the demons temptations - vision that transcends and drives to the core.
