Laura Pretto Vargas

Cosmos is a visual symphony of chaos and wonder—a portal into the invisible energies that pulse just beyond perception. Swirling strokes of magenta, lavender, and pearl white dance across the canvas like nebulae forming in deep space, while bold splashes of incandescent orange tear through the silence like solar flares.

 

This painting is not a depiction of the cosmos we see, but the one we feel—the emotional and energetic universe within us. It speaks of the mysteries we carry in our bodies: creation, destruction, expansion, and rhythm. The movement is electric, erratic, alive. Layers overlap like shifting galaxies, suggesting both distance and intimacy, matter and memory.

 

The textured surfaces and spontaneous marks evoke a state of becoming—a moment suspended between explosion and stillness. In its chaos, there’s structure; in its disorder, a strange harmony. Cosmos reminds us that we, too, are made of stardust—brilliant, unpredictable, and infinite in our becoming.

 

It’s a painting about scale: the vastness of emotion, the vastness of space, and how the two often mirror one another.
