Artist Statement

This artwork encapsulates the emotional dichotomy of longing and resolve, using a palette that evokes feelings of warmth and heaviness. The soft gold and stain brown represent yearning, while the deep wine and ash gray convey strength, forming a contrast that feels both fragile and resolute. The collision occurs primarily in the center, where the noise pattern (resolve) disrupts the constellation pattern (longing), indicating the push and pull between these feelings. The layout erodes symmetry, emphasizing the tension through broken pixel placements that suggest both repair and damage, embodying the essence of the seed.
