Artist Statement
The emotional tone captures a clash between nostalgia and progress, represented by the palette of deep blues and muted purples contrasting with vibrant yellows and oranges. The top half evokes nostalgia's warmth through light, gentle intersections (like memories), while the bottom channels the intensity of progress, with darker, richer hues and fragmented patterns. The split horizontal layout emphasizes this duality, with a bottom-weighted visual that increases the sense of gravity and depth, suggesting a weighty presence of past grievances versus the lighter touch of forward movement.
