Artist Statement
The emotional tone contrasts 'envy' and 'gratitude,' using a palette of 'broken memory' colors like sepia and faded blue to evoke nostalgia and complexity. The layout embodies an upward and downward movement through jagged edges, with patterns representing 'envy' as tight zigzags (turquoise) and 'gratitude' as calmer stairs (tan). The primary collision occurs at the center where darker hues meet lighter ones, suggesting a tension between these emotions, while maintaining significant negative space to avoid visual clutter.
