Artist Statement

This abstract artwork channels the emotional tones of fear and hope through a split vertical composition. The left side is dominated by darker hues (#000000 and #3C2A62), representing fear with jagged patterns and shadows, while the right side is lifted by soft gold (#FFD700) and pale green (#A8D5BA), suggesting hope and upward movement. The tension between these contrasting sides creates a burst-like effect, with glowing edges helping to merge fear's darkness with hope's light, culminating in a dynamic rhythm across the grid. This interplay reflects the emotional complexity of the seed concepts, illustrating the push and pull of contrasting experiences.
