Artist Statement

The emotional tone captures the tension between softness and severity, where soft pastel colors collide with dark, deep hues, representing the push and pull of forgiveness against guilt. The chosen palette of powder pink and sharp crimson evokes a gentle yet assertive presence. The noise pattern reflects severity while the halo suggests softness, creating a dynamic flow from the top to the bottom of the square, centered on a dense cluster of colors that echo the pulse marks against radial lines. This creates a vivid contrast, emphasizing the breaking point where these emotions intersect and release into surrounding negative space.
