Artist Statement

The emotional tone of this piece navigates the tension between emptiness and desire, represented through color and placement. The contrasting palette of black, dark violet, soft gold, and pale green reflects both warmth and coolness, creating a dynamic interplay. The composition features sections of patterned stripes and grids, symbolizing the internal struggle of desire against the desolate expanse of emptiness. The main collision occurs along the transition from the dense golds and greens to the sparse blacks and violets, echoing themes of hope amidst loneliness, while the broken edges introduce a layer of imperfection.
