Artist Statement
The emotional tone juxtaposes joy and grief, evoking a tension between upward movement and downward pull. The chosen palette of bright yellow and orange represents joy, while muted purples and deep blues capture grief. The contrast lies between the bright checker patterns (symbolizing joy) and broken dots (representing grief), creating collisions where joyful signals interrupt the heaviness of grief. The edge style emphasizes a downward weight, reinforcing the struggle between climbing and sinking emotions, as reflected in the pixel arrangement.
