Artist Statement

The emotional tone reflects a struggle between oppressive dread and subtle relief, manifested through the use of dense dark colors interrupted by lighter accents. The palette includes storm gray and near black for heaviness, balanced by soft sky and faded gold, which represent moments of release. The main collision of colors happens in the center where the dark masses meet the lighter hues, capturing the essence of pressure releasing into calm. The seed influenced the abstract layout, creating a spiraling tension that mimics the battle between order and chaos, emphasizing a hollow center that beckons light.
