Artist Statement

The emotional tone evokes a dance between vulnerability and strength, interplaying soft and rigid hues. The chosen palette of cosmic indigo, void black, star white, cold gold, and deep teal represents the awe and terror of internal conflict. The main contrast unfolds in the corner, where pressure meets a gentle dispersal—a visually striking collision that speaks to the tension between structured defense and exposed fragility. The abstract pattern is guided by flows of noise and fault lines, suggesting movement and unrest while ensuring a central pulse remains at the heart of the composition.
