Artist Statement
The composition embodies the tension between softness and severity through a diagonal argument, with the lighter warmth of powder pink and warm white juxtaposed against the dramatic contrast of carbon black and sharp crimson. The pulse marks representing severity introduce a sharp, rhythmic structure that disrupts the softer 'teeth' pattern, emphasizing emotional conflict. Negative space is preserved, accentuating the feeling of weightiness at the bottom, mirroring themes of guilt and forgiveness. This layout enhances the narrative of a delicate balance between pressure and release.
