Artist Statement

The emotional tone captures the struggle between defiance and submission, reflected in the contrasting colors and patterns. The palette mixes warm coral and cool tones like cold slate to create a sense of friction. The rising signal layout emphasizes upward movement, while the chaotic ripple pattern introduces disruption, embodying the tension of pushing against boundaries. The main collision occurs at the center, where color intensity shifts from bold to muted, invoking themes of activism versus compliance, conveying a palpable sense of unease and hope.
