Artist Statement
This composition conveys the emotional tension between nostalgia and progress, with a palette that embodies warmth (pink, red) in contrast to the coolness of darkness (gray, dark maroon). The split horizontal layout reflects the rise vs fall theme, with the lighter colors occupying the top half and the darker hues below, suggesting a drip of memory into heavier realities. The limited broken pixels introduce a sense of imperfection, adding to the theme of disrupted nostalgia. The flow from top to bottom emphasizes the heaviness of progress weighed down by memories.
