Artist Statement

The emotional tone is defined by the tension between control and surrender, represented through structured patterns against sprawling radial bursts. The chosen palette—mourning black, deep blue, new leaf, pale yellow, and stone—evokes feelings of introspection contrasted by renewal. The collision occurs at the center where the tightly controlled structure meets the expansive release of color, symbolizing the struggle between containment and overflow. This abstraction effectively communicates the complex interplay of enforced order against a backdrop of emotional expansion.
