Artist Statement

The emotional tension of vulnerability versus strength is represented through the stark contrast of light and dark colors. A warm palette of hot coral and blood orange is contrasted against the depth of charcoal, invoking feelings of tension and security. The inner 4x4 area, representing vulnerability with a pressure band pattern, collides with the outer frame of strength. Dominance of dark tones at the corners leads to a lighter center, suggesting both safety and exposure, mirroring the ideas of a horizon where light meets weightlessness.
