Artist Statement

The emotional tone reflects a conflict between control and surrender. The palette, featuring warm shadows and distant lilacs, suggests intimacy against cool distances, creating tension. The main collision occurs in the center where warm colors abruptly interact with cooler hues, embodying an overfilled energy juxtaposed with subtle releases towards the edges. The moon shape serves as a metaphor for quiet distance and suspended tension, maintaining a controlled chaos in the arrangement, using broken pixels to imply disruption and imperfect beauty.
