Mariana Cordoba's 'Just Let Yourself Feel' at La Cometa Gallery, Miami
Colombian-American painter Mariana Cordoba presents 'Just Let Yourself Feel,' a large-scale painting currently on view at La Cometa Gallery in Miami's Wynwood Arts District. The work, described as her most commanding to date, renders emotion as architecture, constructing psychological space through gesture, color, and accumulation. Rather than offering a narrative to be solved, the painting demands to be inhabited, presenting a chromatic event of electric blues, acidic greens, and pulsing yellows that initially may seem like gestural excess. Sustained viewing reveals a purposeful composition that constructs interior atmospheres, with the canvas breathing literally. Cordoba's approach moves beyond surface painting to create immersive environments, positioning the viewer within an emotional landscape. The exhibition is part of La Cometa Gallery's program in Miami, which showcases contemporary art from Latin America and beyond. Cordoba, known for her exploration of emotion and abstraction, continues to challenge viewers' perceptions of painting as a medium for psychological depth.
