Artist Statement
This abstract composition explores the tension between control and surrender, depicted through contrasting color patterns and densities. The palette features muted tones of off-white and dust gray juxtaposed with the boldness of compressed red and dark navy, symbolizing the struggle between containment and overflow. The upward flow of pixels reflects an aspiration toward liberation, while the intentional placement of broken pixels introduces disruptions that embody the complexity of surrender. The main collision occurs centrally, where darker and lighter shades intersect, creating a focal point that captures the viewer's attention and feelings of conflict.
