Nava presents a continuiaton of his most recent solo exhibition "like bees to the honey" by working on a new series entitled "Where the bees sleep." "If in his previous exhibition he poetically alluded to the natural need for survival of bees to produce honey, and to the primary desire in humans to look for that constructive energy, now it is a calmer state like bees in winter. They reduce their activity, but they swirl with each other and through their dances and energy, they manage to maintain a constant temperature in the hive of 37 degrees, almost like a human being ".. In this new series Nava investigates in its paintings cleaner and clearer backgrounds, less chaos, with warm colors selecting a very bright palette, but there also seems to be a lot of latent energy as is typical of the winter season. "I believe that every human being must learn to stand and contemplate what surrounds him and stop thinking, I only intend to favor that contemplative gaze". Influenced by German expressionism and American abstract expressionism, or poetic and philosophical literary references, he seeks to get closer and closer to the essence of painting, reducing his pictorial language to minimal elements, using simple compositions where organic shapes predominate close to the circles or dots, warm colors that transmit energy on white and gray backgrounds where the material, the trickles, transparencies and broaches are the protagonists. "I am interested in transforming my negative energy into positive energy through art, and that my painting is connected to what happens around me, that it is alive and changing like life itself".

My painting is expressionist, symbolic, emotional and cathartic, it has an intuitive and experimental spirit. I always have the obsession to transmit emotion with my painting. I always think of the creation linked to life and therefore this mutates and manifested in perpetual change. I am now more interested in abstraction , in which, the content appears only through color and form, in a more essential pursuit of painting, but without renouncing and subjectivity and rejecting formalism and rationality .
