Artist Statement
The emotional interplay between vulnerability and strength is depicted through the juxtaposition of muted and vivid colors. The palette of soft off-whites and dusty grays conveys vulnerability, while the deep navy and compressed red symbolize strength. The pattern collision occurs in the central area, where the deep colors push back against the light hues, creating tension and interaction reminiscent of a crack. This arrangement underscores themes of exposure and shelter by allowing the lighter spaces to be breached by the darker, stronger hues, creating a dynamic flow from bottom to top.
