Artist Statement

This piece explores the emotional dichotomy of awe versus terror through a juxtaposition of orderly and chaotic patterns. The palette, anchored in navy and black with accents of dim cyan and white, evokes feelings of loneliness and isolation while also providing sharp contrast. The left half exhibits clean, structured rows to symbolize order, while the right abruptly fractures into erratic grid-like elements, suggesting chaos and instability. The arrangement reflects a flowing tension—where the soft edges glide into disarray—evoking a sense of emotional push and pull that resonates with the seed's complex themes.
