Artist Statement

This composition illustrates the emotional tension between calm and rage, represented through contrasting color choices and disrupted patterns. The palette of reds and cool blues creates a dynamic feeling of heat opposing serene space while the chaotic arrangement hints at instability and emotion. The top-left corner is intensely filled with jagged reds suggesting overwhelming rage, while the surrounding cooler tones mimic a spreading calm, reflecting containment. This collision reinforces the seed's themes of conflict and tension throughout the layout.
