Artist Statement

This composition captures the emotional tension between rage and calm. The palette, primarily featuring deep blacks and bright whites, emphasizes the stark contrast between compressed, sharp formations and more gentle, spaced-out patterns. The calm elements use pale blues to signify quietness, while the red components suggest overwhelming emotions breaking through barriers. The main collision occurs towards the center, where tight clusters of dark colors meet broader areas of lighter tones, echoing the idea of containment being breached. The broken pixel technique introduces intentional disruptions, reinforcing the themes of chaos and calm battling for dominance.
