Artist Statement

This composition encapsulates the emotional dichotomy of longing and resolve through color and placement. The chosen palette reflects a sense of tranquility (pale mint, soft sky) clashing with heavier tones (storm gray, near black), embodying both serenity and urgency. The main collision occurs in the center, highlighted by a ripple pattern for longing on one side and a flood pattern for resolve on the other. Broken pixels introduce imperfections, suggesting the narrative of a 'mirror broken', while the layout creates a near-symmetrical but disrupted space, allowing the viewer to feel both the comfort of familiarity and the discomfort of disarray.
