Artist Statement

This piece conveys the emotional tension of trust versus suspicion through a diagonal layout, with warmer tones representing trust clashing against darker, muted colors symbolizing suspicion. The 'hunger_restraint' palette creates a balance of warmth and darkness, while the distribution intentionally disrupts evenness, reflecting underlying conflict. The main collision occurs diagonally, where the woven trust pattern interlaces abruptly with the chaotic, noise-like suspicion pattern, depicting the struggle between the two emotions.
