Artist Statement
This piece juxtaposes the emotional extremes of tenderness and rage through an asymmetrical layout. Hot reds dominate the center, symbolizing rage, while subdued tones of pale blue and black provide a contrasting coolness on the edges, embodying tenderness. The layout resembles an open gate, suggesting a breach or entrance for heated emotions to spill into a quieter realm. The intersectionality of sparks and veils creates a rhythm of conflict and resolution that captures a moment of emotional tension. The use of broken pixels introduces imperfection, echoing the complexity of guilt and forgiveness inherent in the emotional tones.
