Artist Statement

The emotional tone reflects the struggle between restlessness and peace, captured through a palette of deep blacks and subtle golds, emphasizing the tension between cool containment and hot impulses. The contrast is highlighted in the layout where dark colors edge the brighter patches, symbolizing the attempt to contain the inner turmoil. The arrangement embodies an 'island and sea' concept, with the dense, warm gold forms fighting for space against the cooler, darker backgrounds. Broken pixels create intentional disruptions, mirroring the jagged nature of mental states, while also retaining an abstract quality, ensuring no literal shapes emerge.
