Artist Statement

The emotional tone oscillates between tenderness and rage, represented through the palette's contrast of red (rage) and pale blue (tenderness). The collision occurs at the bottom left corner, where dense red crosshatch patterns dominate, gradually dispersing into lighter halo effects that symbolize calmness and release towards the top right. This dynamic layout emphasizes the emotional struggle between confined intensity and the need for freedom, as shadows give way to light, showcasing an evolution from pressure to a quiet release.
