Artist Statement
This artwork captures the emotional collision between panic and control, using a warm color palette of reds and grays to evoke feelings of urgency and security. The central pixels form a structured checker pattern, suggesting the illusion of control, while the surrounding grey tones bleed into a chaotic crosshatch design representing panic. The contrast occurs sharply at the edges where the controlled forms meet the wild patterns, creating dynamic tension and a sense of unresolved motion, emblematic of the struggle depicted in the seed.
