Artist Statement
This piece encapsulates the conflict between envy and gratitude. The dark edges symbolize envy, creating a weighty surround, while the lighter inner colors represent the lightness of gratitude. The jagged patterns evoke a 'broken mirror' effect, suggesting instability. Electric blue and magenta provide a collision that highlights the inner tension. The palette of lime, black, electric blue, and magenta reflects a machine-like emotional spectrum, suggesting a mechanized, analytical view of feelings. The negative space allows for breathing room and reflects the potential release of pressure.
