Artist Statement

This artwork explores the tension between confusion and clarity through a stark visual narrative of grid layers and noise. The palette of black, navy, and dim cyan evokes a sense of depth and melancholic clarity, while strategic placements create a battle between structured grids and disjointed patterns. The main contrast occurs with overlapping dark squares suggesting confusion, while reserved spaces signify clarity, reflecting a struggle between order and chaos in the emotional landscape. The introduction of broken pixels accentuates imperfect symmetry, highlighting the central themes of tension and release, creating a feeling of unresolved emotional conflict.
