Artist Statement

This artwork captures the emotional tone of awe and terror through the use of contrasting colors and uneven patterns. The palette combines cool shades of electric blue and magenta with the grounding depth of black and the vibrancy of lime, evoking a sense of conflict between calmness and chaos. The placement of colors echoes moments of pressure with dense clusters of darker tones surrounded by lighter, almost serene hues, creating moments of quiet amidst the collision. The use of broken pixels introduces imperfection, enhancing the sense of tension and release within the composition, embodying the duality of the emotional experience.
