Artist Statement
This piece embodies the emotional struggle between lightness and heaviness, using a palette tinted with warmth to evoke both dread and relief. The bright burnt orange suggests moments of positivity and hope, while the deep charcoal creates a backdrop of struggle and tension. The layout favors negative space, emphasizing an 'empty room' where emotion fluctuates; the broken dots pattern reflects the chaos of dread, while the rings simulate the calm of relief, clashing to form a well-defined central focus. Collision occurs in the upper sections, where brightness fights against more oppressive colors, illustrating an internal struggle that aims for balance amidst fragmentation.
