Artist Statement
This composition explores the emotional tension between softness and severity through the use of a muted color palette juxtaposed with sharp contrasts. The predominant use of dark colors creates a heavy bottom weight, symbolizing severity, while interspersed lighter shades of pink and warm white represent moments of softness. The layout features jagged edges that channel the emotional collision at the center, where elements of ‘rain’ and ‘negative cross’ patterns converge, suggesting a passage between two opposing states. The deliberate placement of broken pixels introduces imperfection, echoing the complexity of guilt and forgiveness in this emotional landscape.
