Artist Statement
The artwork reflects the emotional dichotomy between nostalgia and progress through a horizontal split. The top half embodies nostalgia with cooler tones and stair-like patterns representing memory and a gradual ascent. The bottom half contrasts this with heavier, darker colors suggesting weight and the push of progress. The use of black, pale blue, and white emphasizes the light vs. weight concept through an interplay of detailed patterns and stark space, while the broken pixels introduce imperfection, mirroring the struggle between conflicting emotions.
