Artist Statement
The emotional tone captures the conflict between nostalgia and progress, emphasizing the tension between these contrasting forces. The chosen palette of red, black, and pale blue reflects feelings of rage, calmness, and the bittersweet memory, while white adds a sense of clarity amidst complexity. The arrangement of colors is bottom-weighted, depicting a rise from dark, heavy moments (black) to lighter, brighter tones (white and pale blue), suggesting a journey from despair to hope. The contrast occurs predominantly around the center, where memory (nostalgia) meets clarity (progress), through the juxtaposition of dense clusters of black and red with the aiming white and pale blue, creating a visual 'drip' of past experiences while seeking a brighter future.
