Artist Statement

The emotional tone encapsulates the conflict between control and surrender, using a palette that combines quiet pressure tones with subtle warmth. The dark navy and faint peach collide at the center, symbolizing the struggle between weight and lightness. The jagged edges enforce an abruptness, creating a sense of disturbance to the quiet field that surrounds it. This composition uses a spiral inward approach to suggest a gradual tension build, where the central overflow of color hints at overfilled emotions, creating a stutter step movement in the viewer's perception.
