Artist Statement

This artwork embodies a dynamic contrast between hardness and softness, represented by the colors of deep wine and warm ivory. The central square of deeper hues creates a sense of protected space (defiance), while lighter, more muted tones suggest surrounding chaos and an enclosing submission. The diagonal arrangement of colors signifies a rise toward tension, interrupted by the glitch-like quality of broken pixels that disrupt the flow and harmony, creating a sense of unease and unresolved emotion. The overall palette emphasizes a struggle between the weight of darkness and the lightness of interference, embodying the seed's themes.
