Artist Statement

The emotional tone balances vulnerability and strength, with the colors reflecting guilt and forgiveness. The deep wine symbolizes strength at the center, contrasting with ash gray and warm ivory, suggesting vulnerability. The palette creates tension through dark and light contrasts, with overlapping tensions symbolizing interactions between strength and weakness. The scattered repair layout creates an impression of broken marks being partially mended, with broken pixels representing the scars of these emotional battles.
