Artist Statement

This piece embodies the emotional dialogue between softness and severity, represented through the chosen palette of muted and stark colors. The infusion of powder pink and warm white signifies softness, while carbon black and sharp crimson introduce a sense of severity. The layout focuses on an overfilled center, creating a structured density that contrasts with the lighter outer borders, echoing the themes of pressure and release. The center is where the collision occurs, as both soft and severe patterns overlap. The spiral flow suggests motion, with softness ebbing and flowing like tide patterns, while severity makes its own 'rain' marks, creating an intricate dance that reflects the struggle and harmony in the emotional landscape.
