Artist Statement

This artwork captures the emotional tension between the vibrant energy of sparks and the subdued remnants of ash. The palette of muted plum, soft cyan, and lavender gray portrays a melancholic wonder, while the contrast of hot accents symbolizes resilience against the calm yet fragmented structures of ash. The bright cluster in the center represents a spark of hope surrounded by a sea of cool tones, emphasizing the struggle between vitality and quiet decay. The pattern features broken dots and mirror-like reflections encircling the active center, creating a sense of collision and interruption that embodies the essence of the seed.
