Artist Statement
This piece conveys a duality between control and surrender, with an overflowing central area contrasted by softer, muted hues surrounding it. The warm ivory and soft gold create a gentle descent, while deeper tones of stain brown and deep wine offer gravity and pressure. The geometric arrangement of colors manifests a structured tension that bursts into a softer chaos at the edges, mirroring the theme of containment versus overflow. The presence of broken pixels introduces imperfection, enhancing the narrative of struggle and release.
