Artist Statement

This artwork evokes the emotional tension between envy and gratitude, visualized through a checker pattern that alternates densities of color. The chosen palette of deep maroons and softer pinks reflects the complexities of love and betrayal, creating a striking contrast that symbolizes conflict. The layout allows for a push-pull dynamic where areas of dense color collide with quieter spaces. The imperfect placement of a few broken pixels enhances the feeling of disruption while maintaining a sense of unresolved rhythm throughout the composition.
