Artist Statement
The emotional tone navigates through the interplay of dread and relief. The palette features a stark contrast between deep maroon, vibrant pinks, and muted grays that signify tension and release. This evocative color choice captures the collision of heavy emotions against lighter hues. The arrangement has a bottom-weighted flow, creating a sense of rising action, symbolizing hope fighting against despair. Abstract patterns of grid and jagged forms suggest underlying pressures colliding, while negative space allows breaths of relief amidst the density. The use of broken pixels introduces imperfection, enhancing the overall feeling of rawness associated with the emotions.
