Artist Statement

This piece embodies the emotional duality of fear and hope, showcasing a tension between dense, jagged edges and a subtle core glow. The dark outer layer represents fear, creating a boundary of pressure and uncertainty, while the central palette of pale green and soft gold radiates hope and light. The grid and maze patterns intertwine to evoke a sense of chaos and order, reflecting the collision of emotions. The use of broken pixels emphasizes imperfection amidst surrounding density, maintaining a balance of negative space.
