Artist Statement
This artwork embodies the emotional tension between control and surrender, represented through contrasting layers of dark and warm colors. The palette features shelter green and warm brown for groundedness, while pale skin and open blue create a sense of elevation and softness. The collision occurs in the center, where denser bands of control collide with softer, released hues, illustrating a moment of struggle and balance. The rising signal layout reflects hope amidst pressure, allowing negative space around the edges to create a sense of isolation and quiet.
