From fierce hunters like lions and jaguars to impressive land-grazers like bulls and horses, to sea creatures and insects like the spiny lobster and the stag beetle, the work of Hungarian artist Agnes Nag exemplifies the soulmate-like bonds between humans and animals. Her sculptures provide a realistic representation of wildlife; while their exteriors are hard, each piece expresses a powerful display of movement and exudes feelings of strength, play and freedom. “I didn’t choose animals, they were the ones who found me and refused to let go,” she says. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the South Florida SPCA, a Miami-Dade nonprofit that rescues and rehabilitates horses and livestock. “Miami is an exciting place to share my love for animals and nature with like-minded art enthusiasts and collectors,” she says. Her sculptures give voice to the soul of her wild subjects. Open thru Dec.4; private showings Dec. 3-Feb. 28, 2022; SogolDecor.com; JBContemporary.com.

Still Waters
Some of the pieces in this editorial took 300 hours to make. Some were crafted by hand in Miami. Some exist as one-of-a-kind in the world. Shot at the Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Still Waters is an introduction to the women who build their businesses stitch by stitch, bead by bead, and to the women who wear them. Not because she was told to, but because she knows the difference.
Eternal Bonds
Key Biscayne has a way of slowing time — and the OUTSTANDING mothers OF KEY BISCAYNE who call it home are making the most of every moment, raising families where the water is always close and community runs deep.
