Artist Statement

The emotional tone captures the conflict between desire and restraint, illustrated through a palette of warm reds and cool neutral creams and grays. The stark contrast between the vibrant red_oxide and subtle muted_cream signifies the collision of yearning against containment. The main conflict emerges in the center, where grid patterns representing desire intersect with flooded areas representing restraint, creating a dynamic tension. Broken pixels further imply the imperfections inherent in love and betrayal, suggesting layers of emotion without literal representation.
