Artist Statement
The emotional tone of this piece revolves around the contrast between calmness and rage. The chosen palette of red, black, pale blue, and white evokes feelings of intensity battling with tranquility. The dark colors create a weighty background, while bright accents of red and pale blue serve as interruptions, symbolizing bursts of emotion. The layout with falling pixels portrays a sense of descent, as if emotions are cascading, where dense patches collide with moments of negative space. The broken pixel pattern introduces imperfection, emphasizing the chaotic moments of pressure against the more serene strips of pale blue, capturing the essence of emotional collisions.
