Artist Statement
This composition translates the emotional dichotomy of fear and hope into visual contrasts. The outer black and dark violet emphasize pressure and uncertainty, using jagged edges to create a sense of tension, while the softer inner palette of pale green and soft gold represents hope and potential escape. The grid-like pattern within the core suggests stability amidst chaos, encapsulated by the broken pixel rule that introduces imperfections. The collision occurs where dark pressures meet the lightening core, symbolizing a struggle towards release.
