Artist Statement
This piece captures the tension between panic and control through contrasting color placement and pattern interplay. The dark palette suggests depth and fear, while soft gold introduces a glimmer of hope amid the chaos. The split-screen design represents control, rhythmically intersected by radial elements that evoke panic, creating a conflict where the center glows against darker edges, creating a visually striking collision. The broken pixels introduce imperfection to reflect the unpredictability of emotion, while the negative space allows breathing room, symbolizing the transition from chaotic thoughts to serene clarity.
