Artist Statement

This composition embodies the emotional contrasts of envy and gratitude through a dual layout where the edges represent envy in dark shades, and the center illustrates gratitude in lighter tones. The color palette of black, dark violet, soft gold, and pale green creates a dialogue of tension and warmth. The 'scatter' flow with broken pixels introduces imperfection, symbolizing a shattered mirror reflecting the duality of emotions. The zigzag and frame layout suggests a continuous struggle between heavy feelings and moments of lightness, while the placement of softer colors amid darker surroundings evokes the feeling of hope within despair.
