Artist Statement

This piece captures the emotional juxtaposition of restlessness and peace. The palette of deep navy and black represents the unsettling, while the dim cyan emerges as a signal of peace. The dense center conveys a chaotic memory, emphasizing the feeling of motion, while the edges fade into quieter tones, reflecting calmness. The interruption of the 'braid' pattern clashes with the 'noise' pattern, creating intentional echoes of collision, underscoring the overall struggle between chaos and tranquility.
