Artist Statement
This composition reflects the contrasting emotions of dread and relief through a symmetrical layout that is intentionally disrupted. The chosen palette, with deep maroons and soft pinks, conveys weight and warmth, respectively. The main collision occurs between the heavy dark hues on the left side and lighter tones on the right, suggesting a struggle between heaviness and lightness. The pattern 'teeth' creates sharp contrasts, while the 'dots' signify the persistent dread that contrasts with fleeting moments of relief. Overall, the arrangement of color reflects the push and pull of these emotions, embodying the essence of the seed's themes without literal representation.
