Angelus Custos
In this black-and-white photograph from the Fragments of Light and Shadow collection, the weathered statue of a guardian angel stands vigil over a grave in Quetzaltenango's cemetery. The angel, with its wings lifted and head bowed, embodies solemn watchfulness and eternal protection. The surrounding trees cast shadows that frame the angel, heightening the statue’s ethereal presence. Despite signs of aging and damage, the angel exudes a quiet dignity, inviting reflection on themes of memory, loss, and the unseen guardianship that accompanies us. The interplay of light and shadow captures the transient yet sacred nature of life and death.
