Artist Statement
The emotional tone of this work captures the duality of joy and grief by employing a palette that mirrors warmth (yellow, orange) against coolness (deep blue, muted purple). The contrast lies prominently between the top warm hues representing joy and the deep blue bottom, suggesting grief's encroachment. The hard edges of the layout accentuate a split between emotions, evoking conflicts through disrupted patterns that rise and fall like an emotional heartbeat. The diamond shape is implied through the arrangement, creating focal tensions that reflect inner struggles without literal representation.
