Artist Statement
The emotional tone incorporates a struggle between lightness and heaviness, reflecting the relief versus dread dynamic. The palette features vibrant yellows and oranges to signify relief against deep blues that evoke dread, creating a collision of warmth and coolness. The layout emphasizes a mirror effect with slight intentional disarray, suggesting chaos within symmetry. This abstract representation comes from the concept of broken lines, representing instability. The placement of brighter colors at the top represents hope and lightness, while the darker hues below convey weight, leading to a visual tension that invites contemplation on emotional balance.
