Artist Statement
This artwork embodies the emotional juxtaposition of joy and grief through its contrasting color palette of warm yellows and oranges against muted purples and deep blues. The palette reflects the 'joy_grief' theme; yellows and oranges emanate warmth and openness, while deeper hues signify introspection and sorrow. The main contrast occurs through hard edges, where vibrant colors collide with somber tones, creating a narrative of emotional tension. The split-screen effect, combined with a stair-step pattern, reinforces a sense of movement from the bottom to the top, suggesting the transcendence of grief into joy. With intentional broken pixels, this piece conveys imperfection and authenticity within the emotional spectrum.
