Artist Statement

The artwork explores the emotional tension between control and surrender, reflected in a palette of soft and severe colors. The contrast between saturated sharp crimson against muted tones of warm white and carbon black illustrates a central struggle, represented by a densely filled center surrounded by quieter edges. The shadowed outline adds a thickened pressure that disrupts the calm flow from bottom to top, embodying both the pressure and release dictated by the seed's themes.
