Artist Statement

This composition captures the emotional tension between longing and resolve through juxtaposition. The palette of soft pinks and steel grays reflects a balance of warmth and severity, with carbon black providing depth. The center is rich with spark-like patterns that suggest desire, while teeth-like shapes project a sense of firmness at the edges. The main collision occurs centrally, where longing’s vibrant hues intersect with the more controlled resolve, mirroring the push and pull of emotional states. Broken pixels around the periphery introduce imperfection, symbolizing the impact of damage against repair—a metaphor for the human experience.
