Artist Statement
This piece reflects an emotional dialogue between control and surrender, utilizing a palette that balances softness and severity. The warm white suggests a yielding quality, contrasting with the stark carbon black to create a pressure effect. The dense center symbolizes overflow, while the shattering edges embody release and surrender. Broken pixels disrupt uniformity, enhancing the emotional tension. The interplay between dense blocks of color and quiet spaces evokes an unresolved motion.
