Artist Statement

This artwork captures the emotional dichotomy of restlessness and peace, with a heavy black edge symbolizing weight and a lighter inner region suggesting the need for peace. The chosen palette contrasts darks and lights to evoke the interplay between calm and tumult. The principal collision occurs at the center, where restless patterns of noise disrupt the tranquil islands, effectively suggesting a struggle between emotion and memory. The use of broken pixels adds a layer of imperfection, echoing the theme of disruption and unresolved tension.
