Artist Statement
The emotional tone explores the duality of joy and grief. The chosen palette features bright yellows and oranges representing joy, contrasted with deep blues and muted purples reflecting grief. This results in a tension where the vibrant hues clash against the darker, heavier tones. The layout divides the space with a clear frame-and-core structure, where the outer edge represents chaos and grief, with dense patterns like stripes, while the inner core employs crack patterns to symbolize joy, creating a dynamic interplay. The arrangement flows from the bottom to the top, suggesting a movement from heavy to light, with shattered pixels disrupting the harmony, emphasizing the fragmented experience of emotion.
