Artist Statement

The emotional tone captures the tension between vulnerability and strength through varying densities of color, with a pale center suggesting exposure, framed by darker, more stable edges. The chosen palette of muted cream, red oxide, and blackened plum represents both the warmth of human connection and the coldness of alienation. The main collision occurs in the center where the dense 'strength' colors interrupt the 'vulnerability' hues, symbolizing the ebb and flow of emotions. The overall composition leaves a negative space that enhances the emotional pull, suggesting open-endedness and the potential for anew.
