Artist Statement
The emotional tone reflects a conflict between resilience and surrender, influenced by the patterns of maze and patchwork. The palette combines striking lime and electric blue against a dark backdrop, creating a stark contrast that embodies defiance. The main collision occurs at the center, where the compact maze-like formation confronts the more dispersed patchwork space, symbolizing the clash of submission. Broken pixels add intentional disruptions, enhancing the sense of tension and making the composition feel dynamic and alive.
