Artist Statement

This artwork explores the emotional tension between vulnerability and strength through a deliberate contrast of dense and light patterns. The chosen palette of burnt orange, dark red, charcoal, and gold embodies the ancient fire theme, suggesting warmth juxtaposed against shadowy apprehension. The main collision occurs in the center where lighter hues encroach on darker edges, symbolizing exposure and protection. The lattice and stack patterns create an interplay of structure and fragility, reinforcing the emotional narrative of connection versus alienation.
