Navegante is a visual journey across fragments of memory, perception, and transformation. This twelve-panel polyptych unfolds like a cartography of the soul—each canvas a coordinate in the unfolding of a deeper truth. The work does not seek to represent the external world, but rather to evoke the internal ocean where silence, emotion, and consciousness collide.

The texture emerges like ancient skin: layered, wounded, healed. Blues and golds bleed into one another, suggesting maps submerged in time, constellations hidden beneath the waterline. The recurring use of translucent layers, gestural abstraction, and chromatic vibration reveals the essence of a body in motion—one that remembers, navigates, and becomes.

This piece inhabits the expanded field of painting, rejecting linearity in favor of cyclical movement and intuitive resonance. It is a work that invites contemplation, not through narrative, but through presence. The viewer is not asked to interpret, but to feel—to navigate their own internal landscape through the emotional cartography Brenda traces with color, absence, and energetic gesture.

Navegante is both compass and vessel. A silent yet powerful reminder that to journey inward is to remember who we are, beneath all layers, beyond all names.
