Artist Statement

The emotional tone plays on the tension between nostalgia and progress. The palette of burnt orange and dark red highlights warm, comforting tones reflecting nostalgia, while the charcoal and gold introduce elements of starkness and hope signifying progress. The contrast comes from a split layout where the upper half is densely packed with darker shades, suggesting heavier emotional weight, while the lower half bursts with lighter tones, presenting a release and progression towards brightness. The design reflects a battle between the deep, rich memories and the sharp, clear advancements, allowing for movement from the center outward.
