Observing Virginia Chévez artwork is to transcend the borders of oil and canvas to immerse yourself in a world of total peace, of absolute silence, where the soul discovers itself enjoying the interior landscape. Colors that weave in complete harmony with the sound of the universe, shaves that wrap us in an eternal embrace and transport us to the fundamental home of being. Contemplation in solitude that welcomes and shelters; meditation that invites you to forget about existence and give in to the immensity of the universe.
