Artist Statement
This square embodies the emotional tension between envy and gratitude. The chosen palette of sepia, tan, dust gray, and faded blue evokes a sense of nostalgia and contrast, where the outer layer symbolizes jealousy with darker, muted tones, while the inner core embodies moments of gratitude through lighter flecks. The conflicting diagonal flow suggests an imbalance, echoing the push and pull between these emotions. Randomly broken pixels create an imperfection that reflects the harsh reality of these emotions clashing, emphasizing the composition's tension.
