Artist Statement

This abstract composition explores the tension between defiance and submission through a dynamic color interplay. The central 4x4 grid, dominated by a maze pattern in electric blue and signal green, symbolizes defiance's bright refusal and angular resistance. The thick outline of dead black represents submission's enclosed field, contrasting sharply with the chaotic central colors. The arrangement reflects a pulse-like rhythm, with glitch-like static gray pixels invading the edges, creating a sense of pressure at the borders. The main collision occurs at the center, where defiance fights to emerge against submission's bounds, resulting in an engaging abstract narrative.
