Artist Statement

The emotional tone reflects a dance between softness and severity, where muted fields of warm white (#F2F2F2) and powder pink (#F7C6D7) intermingle with the stark contrasts of carbon black (#101010) and sharp crimson (#A90000). The main contrast occurs in the center through overlapping patterns of thread-like softness and sharp, cracked disruptions. The arrangement suggests a winding journey inward, echoing the spiral counterclockwise from the seed, while maintaining a bottom-weighted composition that feels both heavy and light. This abstract representation captures the themes of guilt and forgiveness through its ebb and flow of colors.
