Self-taught or art school?
I developed my style over the years and consider myself self-taught. I did, however, study art in primary school and high school, which gave me a good foundation.
If you could own one work of art, what would it be?
I absolutely love Antonello da Messina’s ‘Portrait of a Young Man’, ca. 1470. He captured perfectly the essence of a content human being. His subject looks directly at the viewer, giving us a cheeky but peaceful smile. He looks ageless. We could easily ‘meet him’ out and about in the city today. The rareness of truly smiling faces in classical artworks always puzzled me and was immediately taken by this piece when I first discovered it.
How would you describe your style?
Visionary, intuitive and humorous. As an artist and an intuitive healer, I’m at my best when I combine the two to create healing artworks which I then wrap around with humour. I find when I apply laughter and art together, they multiply their healing values.
Is narrative important within your work?
Yes, very much so. There is always a storyline and, in most cases, it’s usually multi-dimensional. I like to take the viewers on a journey. But instead of explaining what a certain scene means, I offer them to make their own meaning of my artworks. I think when the viewers are doing the interpretation, it’s more empowering for them; it feels more inclusive. Especially, since in my art I often portray other dimensional ‘beings’, whom we can only see in our mind’s eyes.
Who are your favourite artists and why?
Growing up, most, if not all, of the artists we learnt about in school, were male artists. The same was true for the art exhibitions or art books we had, maybe with the exception of mentioning Tamara de Lempicka and Frida Kahlo’s works. Even in my youth, I found that odd.
When I came across the works of Hilma af Klint, Artemisia Gentileschi, Dorothea Tanning, or Judith Leyster, I felt an instant connection with their work. They were much ahead of their time. Sadly that meant that some of them didn’t get the credit they deserved in their lives. I also love and am in total awe of the works of Ruben, Rembrandt, and, as mentioned above, Antonello da Messina. These artists’ works speak to my soul directly.
What or who inspires your art?
My ancestors, my connection to the higher realms, nature, and my dreams. The things I see not only with my physical eyes but with my third eye. Meditation, just like travelling, broadens my horizon and helps me find inspiration.
Are there any recurring themes within your work and can you tell us about them?
Yes, my artworks are like decoded messages from the higher realms. We all have a key to unlocking universal wisdom by using our intuition, and that is what I do through my art. My recurring themes focus on the importance of unity, oneness, and love.
Where’s your studio and what’s it like?
My studio is in my home in North London, in a quiet room facing the garden.
Do you have any studio rituals?
Not really a ritual, but I enjoy having some of my crystals around me while I work. If I put on any background music, then it has to be classical music or relaxing instrumental music. But most of the time I work in silence. A noise-free environment and a view of nature enable me to fully focus and stay in the flow.
What are you working on currently?
Currently, I’m working on healing artwork commissions. My other project is a series I started during the pandemic called ‘past life self-portraits’.
Where can we buy your art?
On my website on agnesgomori.com.
What are your ambitions?
I want to awaken the healing power of art in people through my work. I want my art to reach a global audience, so I can help them open up to the joyous possibility of being both the creators and the observers of art. To achieve this, I’m planning to have more virtual and physical exhibitions and run art workshops this year.
