Artist Statement
The emotional tone reflects the juxtaposition of loneliness and connection, illustrating the tension between being exposed yet hidden. The palette, consisting of navy, black, single white, and dim cyan, evokes feelings of isolation punctuated by brief moments of light. The contrast lies in the central black pixel that represents isolation surrounded by a chaotic burst of colors, illustrating the struggle and sharp tension between connection and disconnection. The crosshatch pattern adds complexity, hinting at the struggles of 'inside versus outside' through overlaps that create dense, echoing spaces, conveying a sense of both pressure and release.
