Artist Statement
The emotional tone reflects a dance between the restlessness of sharp, dense clusters and the calmness of wide spaces. The palette combines deep reds and stark blacks to evoke intensity, contrasted by pale blues and whites for clarity and peace. The main collision occurs in the diagonal swath across the canvas where restless barcode patterns intersect with smooth hinge patterns, creating a visual tension that suggests movement and stillness simultaneously. The use of broken pixels introduces intentional disruptions, enhancing the feeling of fragmented memory. This arrangement emphasizes the emotional struggle between chaotic motion and serene calmness, abstractly representing the dynamic between the two.
