Artist Statement

The emotional tone reflects a juxtaposition of vulnerability and strength, using a palette that balances pale mint and soft sky for gentleness, contrasted with storm gray and near black for depth. The main collision occurs at the center, where strong, sharp edges of dark colors meet the gentle, flowing patterns of lighter hues, suggesting tension between exposure and protection. This layout embodies the threshold concept, where emotions intersect and create dynamic patterns while utilizing broken pixels to signify imperfections and scars, aligning with the theme of pressure and relief.
