Artist Statement

This composition channels the ambivalence of envy and gratitude, manifesting as a mirrored structure that feels disrupted. The interplay of warm pinks and cool grays symbolizes gratitude and envy, respectively, while hard edges suggest a dynamic clash of emotions. The zigzag pattern emphasizes the tension between these feelings, with concentrated areas of color representing emotional weight, countered by quiet negative spaces that allow for reflection. The broken pixels serve to embody the imperfection inherent in these contrasting emotions, creating a visual echo of turmoil and balance.
