Artist Statement

The emotional tone reflects a dynamic tension between awe and terror, captured through contrasting hues and chaotic patterns. The chosen palette of pinks and dark maroon represents warmth intermingled with somber undertones, creating an unsettling beauty. The upper rows, with a checker pattern, echo a sense of structured awe, while the lower rows, filled with broken dots, convey erratic terror, emphasizing instability. The interplay of soft edges with hard contrasts examines how serenity can abruptly shift to chaos, embodying both order and disorder.
