ABOUT:

The Selby Foundation Gallery in coordination with the Illustration Department is pleased to present Peter Mohrbacher: Angelarium, a solo exhibition featuring the visionary work of artist Peter Mohrbacher, on view from September 5 through October 18, 2025. Best known for his ongoing Angelarium series, Mohrbacher creates surreal, ethereal beings that exist at the intersection of mythology, symbolism, and the human psyche. His richly atmospheric digital paintings invite viewers into a dreamlike realm where each celestial figure embodies abstract concepts such as memory, grief, hope, or revelation. With intricate detail and haunting beauty, Mohrbacher’s work transcends genre, merging elements of fantasy art with fine art sensibilities.

Originally rising to prominence in the world of fantasy illustration, Mohrbacher has forged a unique path as both a self-published artist and online creator, building a global audience through digital platforms and independent projects. This exhibition marks a rare opportunity to encounter his work in a gallery setting, offering an immersive experience into the spiritual and psychological dimensions of his universe. Through this collection of prints and original digital works, Peter Mohrbacher: Angelarium challenges us to reconsider the boundaries of the sacred and the surreal—and to reflect on the unseen forces that shape our inner worlds.
