Artist Statement
The emotional tone reflects a struggle between envy and gratitude, captured through a palette embodying fear and hope. The use of dark violets represents the heaviness of envy, while soft gold symbolizes the lightness of gratitude. The composition's center-heavy layout allows for a stark contrast between these emotions, with bright pixels interrupting the more muted tones, suggesting a rising tension. The zigzag flow creates a dynamic energy, with the patterns of 'frame' and 'crosshatch' illustrating the battle for control within the empty room concept. The arrangement respects negative space, allowing the emotions to breathe and conflicts to resonate.
