Artist Statement
The emotional tone reflects a dialogue between strength and vulnerability, expressed through a contrasting palette of dark navy and soft white. The central illuminated area resonates with vulnerability, while the surrounding darker tones signify strength and protection. The collision happens at the edges where light meets shadow, giving an impression of pressure along the borders, mirroring the tension in the seed. The patterns embody a barcode for strength, featuring dense vertical lines, interwoven with the softness of a threshold pattern that invites quiet reflection. The resulting arrangement captures a sense of conflict between exposure and shelter, evoking the complex emotions within the provided seed.
