Artist Statement

The emotional tone contrasts the oppressive weight of pressure against areas of quietness. The palette, featuring off-white, dust gray, and compressed red, encapsulates a journey from heaviness to softness. The edges are jagged, visually representing the collision of calm and intensity, with dark blues grounding the piece while lighter hues gradually free the space. The main collision reflects in the central band, where tension peaks before releasing into lighter hues.
