Artist Statement

The emotional tone encapsulates a balance between vulnerability and strength, conveying a narrative of exposure and shelter. The selected palette, featuring muted and soft tones like dust gray and pale peach, represents vulnerability, while compressed red and dark navy serve as the grounding force of strength. The main contrast exists at the center, where the collision of ash-field patterns clashing with mirror-like qualities creates a dynamic interplay, suggesting both protection and exposure. This reflects the abstract narrative induced by the seed, projecting an emotional landscape that navigates through layers of safety and risk.
