Artist Statement

This composition explores the emotional narrative of softness clashing with severity through an intentional interplay of colors. The palette combines warm whites and powder pinks, symbolizing softness, contrasted against deep carbon black and steel gray representing severity. The center of the square features the strongest collision, with layers of dark colors accented by scattered lighter tones, evoking feelings of tension and repair. The layout embodies a scattered repair motif, with color patches intersecting at various points, suggesting an ongoing process of reconciliation between opposing emotions.
