Artist Statement

This composition explores the emotional tension between vulnerability and strength. The chosen palette of black, dark violet, soft gold, and pale green represents the contrast between starkness and a hint of warmth. The arrangement of colors creates a feeling of pressure at the center, representing strength, while softer hues and lattice patterns breaking through depicts vulnerability, leading to a visual conflict in the center. The broken pixels introduce intentional disruptions that evoke a sense of frailty and imperfection throughout, symbolizing the struggle between stability and fragility.
