Artist Statement
The emotional tone conveys a struggle between control and surrender, reflected in the densely packed colors at the center and loosening into more open space towards the edges. The palette blends warm corals and oranges with subdued blues and grays, suggesting a push and pull between tension and release. The main collision occurs at the center, where bright tones clash with muted backgrounds, embodying the theme of overflowing versus containment while allowing glimpses of negative space that enhance the feeling of a quiet surrender.
