Artist Statement
This composition embodies the emotional tension between rage and calm through its distinct contrasting palette. The palette of red, black, pale blue, and white conveys deep emotional nuances—hot reds suggest explosive rage, while cool blues and whites introduce calmness. The main collisions occur where the jagged red patterns of rage overwhelm the more horizontal and gentle blue; thus, creating a dense focal point in the center. The zigzag structure captures the chaotic interplay of emotions, with broken pixels providing a sense of imperfection and erosion, echoing the theme of contained vs overflowing feelings.
