Artist Statement

This piece encapsulates the emotional dichotomy between certainty and curiosity, reflected in the color palette's warm and cool tones. The use of dark greens and warm browns represents the grounding feeling of certainty, while cold whites and open blues evoke curiosity. The main contrast occurs at the center where the colors collide, illustrating the tension of order meeting chaos. The 'scattered repair' layout suggests the imperfection and incompleteness inherent in navigating this emotional landscape, with broken pixels introducing a sense of disruption that speaks to both the stabilizing and unsettling aspects of exploration.
