Artist Statement
This composition embodies the emotional clash between nostalgia and progress. The upper half showcases nostalgia through a checker pattern using muted tones (#000000, #444444, #555555), representing the weight of memories. The lower half reflects progress with a contrasting crosshatch of vibrant colors (#00FF00, #00FFFF, #FF00FF) alongside dark accents, symbolizing the dynamic tension of growth facing the remnants of the past. The palette employs shades of black and bright colors to emphasize the emotional struggle, while the split layout and weight distribution embody the concept of rise vs. fall. The arrangement of full vs. hollow squares promotes a sense of push and pull, reflecting moments of rage and calm across the canvas.
