Artist Statement
This composition reflects the emotional tensions of joy and grief through a divided layout, with the left half embodying joy's vibrant warmth and the right half echoing grief's somber tones. A zigzag flow moves upward in the joyful section, represented by bright yellows and oranges, while the grief section consists of muted blues and purples, creating a stark contrast. Jagged edges suggest the tumult of emotions while broken pixels add a sense of imperfection, capturing the rawness of human experience. The deliberate negative space allows feelings to breathe, hinting at unresolved tensions in both joy and grief.
