Artist Statement
The emotional tone hinges on the tension between envy and gratitude, expressed through a warm palette of burnt orange and dark red vs a cooler charcoal and gold. The contrast is sharp where heavier colors collide with lighter hues, creating a sense of pressure surrounding a fragmented center, symbolizing broken mirrors. The central heaviness evokes both weight and lightness, while zigzag patterns suggest chaotic interruptions amidst a structured grid. Broken pixels add imperfection, imbuing the piece with a layer of complexity reflecting the dualities within the emotions.
