Artist Statement

The emotional tone explores the tension between control and surrender. The chosen palette of deep, muted colors suggests intensity and an underlying struggle. The main contrast occurs around the center, where densely packed colors collide with softer edges, representing the overflow of emotion battling against the need for containment. The patterns of densely packed hues extend outward, mimicking the themes of pressure releasing towards the outer edges, akin to a conversation between rigid structure and flowing freedom.
