Artist Statement

The emotional tone conflicts between defiance and submission, capturing an internal struggle through color placement. The palette, featuring vibrant pink and red against calming gray and dark maroon, illustrates love betraying submission with passionate accents. The bottom-weighted layout echoes the contrast between lightness and weight, while the staircase and ring patterns provide a flowing rhythm that suggests movement. The broken pixel elements introduce imperfections, symbolizing the disruption of calmness, while leaving negative space enhances the sense of open vs closed, allowing tension to breathe within the composition.
