Artist Statement
This artwork captures the emotional dichotomy of joy and grief through its color choices and stark contrasts. The palette derives from bright yellows and oranges for joy, suggesting warmth and vibrancy, contrasted by deep blues and muted purples representing grief, imparting a sense of weight and heaviness. The layout reflects a diagonal invasion from the corner, creating a tension of movement where bright rings (joy) collide with grid-like structures (grief). The placement evokes an ongoing battle between safety and threat, with broken pixels adding an element of imperfection, enhancing the emotional charge. This piece visually narrates a story of how joy and grief coexist, intertwined in a complex dance.
