Artist Statement
The emotional tone of the artwork reflects a delicate balance between control and surrender, represented through a palette of muted sepia and gray tones contrasted by washes of faded blue. The central collision occurs in the middle rows where the heavy, controlled colors meet the lighter, sparser threads, suggesting a struggle between feeling trapped and a desire for release. This arrangement embodies the essence of the seed through its non-literal representation as a wave pattern; a shape seed that symbolizes fluctuation and uncertainty without defined boundaries, aligning with the concept of 'rising signal' as the colors climb upward, signifying hope against entrapment.
