Artist Statement
The emotional tone reflects a struggle between control and surrender, represented through contrasting sections within the grid. The palette features deep blacks and muted creams, symbolizing density and release, with jagged edges to imply tension. The main collision occurs at the center, where dark colors collide with lighter shades, fostering a sense of unease but also balance. Broken pixels add intentional imperfections, emphasizing the unresolved emotional state, while ensuring a visually engaging experience that invites contemplation.
