Artist Statement
The emotional tone of 'control vs surrender' is reflected through an intentional design: a center overflowing with warm accents contrasting against cooler, muted backgrounds, creating a visual stutter. The palette features vivid oranges paired with softer pinks and deep blues, embodying both the pressure of containment and the soft edge of surrender. The collision occurs in the center, where warm colors confront the cooler tones, echoing the stutter-step flow. The use of broken pixels introduces imperfection, suggesting ongoing tension and release within the square.
