Artist Statement

This composition emanates a strong emotional tension between relief and dread, with a focus on the struggle against density. The palette features muted tones of gray (#444444, #555555) representing dread, conflicting with vibrant mint (#A8E6CF) and soft sky (#FFD3B6) colors suggesting relief and lightness. The top four rows display radial patterns emulating the gentle release, while the bottom four rows adopt a lattice design to embody the oppressive weight of dread. The collision occurs prominently in the center with a burst of pale mint against darker shades, symbolizing the breaking through of light amidst an encroaching darkness.
