Angela Maray is a multidisciplinary artist based in Alexandria, Virginia. Her focus is primarily acrylic painting, incorporating abstract, figurative, and realistic approaches. She invites viewers to embrace contradiction within themselves and gravitates toward pared-down forms as entry points to larger existential questions, intending to interrupt the trance of mental habits and routine with a sense of freedom and surrender.

Maray's ongoing project, BATHUS, stems from a vision centering on the meaning of the word 'bathus' as both 'deep' and 'dawn', with the goal of creating experimental works where viewers are called to journey inward, using the senses 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 a collective practice of inner accountability — recognizing integrity, truthfulness, emotional maturity, and self-responsibility as forms of cultural and economic wealth.
