Artist Statement
This artwork captures the emotional duality of relief and dread through contrasting colors and unexpected placements. The palette of muted grays juxtaposed with splashes of pink and deep red reflects the struggle between calmness and tension. The use of 'flame' as a shape seed suggests fleeting warmth amid oppressive shadows. The asymmetry in placement creates a dynamic flow from the top, emphasizing weight and balance, with the dark tones representing the heavier aspects of dread and the brighter accents offering glimmers of relief. Each row alternates between heavier and lighter tones, echoing the tension throughout the canvas.
