Artist Statement

The composition embodies a clash between rage and calm, utilizing a palette of red, black, pale blue, and white. The black and red create a hot, explosive center that contrasts sharply with the cooler pale blue and white regions. This symbolizes the battle between contained pressure and overflowing intensity. The anger is scattered across the center, indicating ruptures within calmness, while the outer edges feature smoother transitions suggesting quietness. The zigzag pattern feels like sharp, jagged interruptions, representing aggressive emotions, while the calmer echoes of blue provide a backdrop of tranquility, drawing the eye towards the central tension point.
