The work of
Fernando García Correa evokes a wide range of references including Op Art, topographical features, and woven textiles. The delicate repeating lines found in his new drawings—which are often presented as diptychs and polyptychs—create a sensation of physical movement. Correa’s working process is essential to the final art object. The site-specific wall drawing that he created for the exhibition, 298265, illustrates the complexity of his layered compositions in which geometric abstractions reveal a utopian and subjective approach to art-making.
