Artist Statement

The artwork embodies a duality of emotional states through contrasting palette choices of warm reds and cool blues, suggesting an ongoing struggle between calm and rage. The palette’s sharp contrasts evoke a sense of pressure, while the overall arrangement creates a flowing narrative mimicking falling pixels. The central collision occurs in the middle rows where reds break into the calmer blue tones, emphasizing invasion and disruption against a soft background, aligned with the 'eye' shape seed woven into the fabric of the piece.
