Artist Statement
The emotional tone explores the dichotomy of relief versus dread, embodied through the contrast of light and dark colors. The palette of pale mint, soft sky, and faded gold represents moments of relief, while storm gray and near black convey a sense of dread and weight. The layout of descending pixels mimics falling, creating a visual representation of teardrops or ashes. The collision occurs at the center, where dark colors invade lighter spaces, suggesting tension and disruption. The patterned structure, with its broken pixels, evokes a narrative of struggle and the fragile balance between opposing emotions.
