Artist Statement

The emotional tone juxtaposes intensity and softness, symbolizing the collision between rage and tenderness. The color palette utilizes saturated reds and blacks to signify rage, balanced by muted pale blues and whites to represent tenderness, creating a visual tension. The composition features a central collision of sharp, jagged pixels (representing rage) on the left, while the right displays soft, overlapping sections in gentle hues, suggesting an embrace or reconciliation. The deliberate use of broken pixels introduces imperfections, echoing the chaos of complex emotions while maintaining a quiet channel of negative space that suggests introspection.
