Cornelia Vargas opens her new exhibition "Messages" on July 13 at the Galeria Patricia Ready in Santiago. The exhibition will be open until August 24 and is for now the last exhibition she will hold in Chile.

With "Messages" Cornelia wants to exhibit the continuity of the process of increasing complexity in the configurations of her works. Following new series, the patterns she employs become surfaces whose structures disappear completely and new figures emerge. She has worked with the concept of 'tessellation', a term that comes from mathematics and refers to the covering of the Euclidean plane without gaps or overlaps.

The exhibition brings together 50 works mainly from the years 2019 to 2022, they are acrylic paintings or oil on canvas, of various sizes and from the series Growth, Tessellation, Lightning, The Perfect Rectangle, Squared, Euler, Balance, Magic Square, Prime Numbers, Nested Squares, Polygons and Spirals.

We invite you to explore the concrete abstraction of Cornelia and to experience and feel the variations of each work and to discover their logics, as she says "In my works I establish order against deterioration, and within the order the movements allow freedom and each message creates a new reality expressing my abstract ideas."
