Artist Statement
This piece explores the emotional tension between nostalgia and progress. The palette of burnt orange, dark red, charcoal, and gold evokes warmth and intensity, representing both a yearning for the past and the assertiveness of forward motion. The layout follows a mirrored yet broken pattern, illustrating the complexity of rising and falling emotions. The contrast lies in shifts between dense clusters and empty spaces, embodying the collision of memories and aspirations. The arrangement of colors resonates like a drip against a grid, reminding us of the weight of our experiences against the backdrop of time.
