Artist Statement

The emotional tone oscillates between the weight of pressure and the calmness of quiet. The palette features muted colors like 'dust_gray' and 'off_white' to evoke quietness, contrasting with deep tones like 'dark_navy' for pressure. Main collisions occur in the center, where dense patterns of darker colors meet the expansive lighter areas, embodying the push-pull dynamic of the seed. The structure resonates with the duality of clarity and confusion, as the meticulous layout suggests a channel guiding the viewer's eye through the square.
