Artist Statement
This composition explores the interplay of relief and dread through a contrasting palette of pale mint and near black. The top half is dominated by visual weight, representing the pressure of dread, while the lower half embraces lightness and openness, symbolizing relief. The patterns of stacking and cracking create a visual collision reflecting chaos vs order, leading to a central focal point where both emotions intersect. Broken pixels introduce a sense of imperfection, enhancing the narrative of struggle and release.
