Artist Statement
The emotional tone captures the interplay between control and surrender, manifesting in a spiral counterclockwise flow that contrasts contained colors against softer tones. A palette of red oxide, blackened plum, muted cream, iron gray, and small orange reflects this struggle, using thick outlines and echoing patterns to illustrate collision. The main contrast resides in the center, where rich hues meet muted fields, suggesting an overflow of intensity against a backdrop of quiet restraint.
