Artist Statement

The emotional tone reflects the duality of joy and grief, captured through a palette that balances bright yellows and oranges with muted purples and deep blues. The layout emphasizes a central ground where order meets chaos: bright, structured grids on one side collide against a more fragmented, chaotic arrangement on the other. This contrast creates tension, highlighting joy amidst grief. The soft edges symbolize the blurred lines between these emotions, while broken pixels introduce an element of imperfection, echoing the human experience.
