“Navia
has honed a language in painting that is unmistakably her own. Essentially
each picture is painted with two distinct technical approaches,
as the artist juxtaposes her treatment of the subjects to the spaces
they occupy. While the chairs are rendered convincingly as present
objects, the backgrounds are painted with an ‘all over’
approach in the manner of an abstract expressionist where every
square inch is treated with equal importance”
