Artist Statement
This artwork captures the emotional dichotomy between nostalgia and progress. The palette reflects a transition from dark shadows (nostalgia) to soft glows (progress), invoking feelings of unease and hope. The main contrast occurs along the horizontal split, where dark colors represent a heavy past while lighter shades surge upward, akin to progress striving against weight. The pattern embodies a zigzag flow, emphasizing irregularity and tension, where broken pixels signify the imperfections in our journey from the past to a hopeful future.
