Artist Statement
The emotional tone of awe versus terror informs the choice of colors and patterns. The selected palette of deep black, dark violet, soft gold, and pale green creates a striking juxtaposition between dark and light, emphasizing the tension of the emotions. The layout presents a split screen, with black and dark violet on one side conveying a sense of profound depth and looming dread, while soft gold and pale green evoke moments of hope and calmness. The broken pixels introduce imperfection, reflecting the unstable nature of memory and emotion. The contrast primarily occurs where the warm gold clashes with the cool tones, creating a tension that echoes the push and pull between order and chaos. The arrangement of colors and patterns invites viewers to explore their own feelings of awe and fear, represented through the flow of waves contrasting with jagged edges.
