Artist Statement

The emotional tone interplay of defiance and submission is articulated through contrasting colors and spatial distribution. The palette—signal green, electric blue, dead black, static gray, and hot magenta—reflects a vibrant chaos and subdued calm. The center is dominated by static gray, representing a resilient core, while accents of hot magenta and electric blue create disruption, symbolizing bursts of defiance against a backdrop of submission. Broken pixels scattered throughout add intentional imbalance, echoing moments of emotional tension and interference, creating a dynamic visual rhythm.
