Artist Statement

The artwork explores the emotional dichotomy between rage and calm, channeling their interactions through a spiral layout. The palette combines striking reds and tranquil pale blues, visually representing hot bursts of emotion clashing with cool containment. The composition's structure gives an edge-heavy appearance, where the center radiates bright red contrasts, encapsulating feelings of aggression while fading into a serene blue field, embodying a sense of calm. Broken pixels intermittently interrupt the flow, suggesting both scars of conflict and moments of quiet clarity.
