Artist Statement
The emotional tone captures the dichotomy of envy and gratitude, creating a conflict between dense clusters of darker hues representing envy and lighter, more open shades symbolizing gratitude. The palette includes sepia, tan, and faded blue to invoke a sense of nostalgia with broken memories. The main contrast occurs in the center, where darker colors collide with lighter tones, creating tension that radiates outward in a zigzag pattern reminiscent of stairs—suggesting upward movement against noise. The shape seed of a diamond is reflected in the jagged edges that create a dynamic interplay, embodying the complex emotions of the seed.
