Artist Statement
The emotional juxtaposition of defiance and submission is mirrored in the color choices: bold compressed reds and deep dark navy clash with softer off-white and dust gray. The dominant presence of the compressed red represents defiance, creating a striking focal point that spirals inward while the surrounding muted colors suggest submission and quiet tension. The layout centers around a highlighted area, reflecting both an attack and a retreat through the collision of brightness in the center against the quiet fields at the edges, reinforcing the push and pull of these emotions.
