Artist Statement

The emotional tone of awe and terror creates a contrast of upward movement against downward pressure, embodying the tension between stability and chaos. The color palette of deep navy and dim cyan represents the vastness of awe while the fragmented whites suggest moments of interruption and fear. The soft edges convey a gentle transition, while the application of broken pixels throughout introduces imperfection, reflecting shattered memories and the complexity of emotions at play. The arrangement features a central density that radiates outward, with brighter hues intersecting darker tones, emphasizing the collision of feelings within the structure.
