Artist Statement
This artwork captures the emotional struggle between joy and grief through contrasting colors and structured patterns. The interplay of muted blue tones representing grief clashes with bright yellows and oranges symbolizing joy. The arrangement creates a layered ascension and descent, echoing the struggle of rising against a backdrop of sadness. The hard edges reflect the stark division between these emotions while the broken pixels introduce an element of imperfection, representing the chaos within control, making the viewer reflect on the duality of existence.
