Balance is an ideology that drives all our lives. As Koi Fresco said, ?Balance is the key to everything. What we do, think, say, eat, feel, they all require awareness, and through awareness we can grow.? Our life requires balance, whether it is the work-life balance, or personal and emotional balance. This is something that played a crucial role during the pandemic, whether it was adapting to work from home or having to modify your lifestyle. Keeping this universal notion in mind, we created an artwork that represents the concept through the lens of Wassily Kandinsky?s Composition VIII.

Our artwork ?Equilibria? exhibits the design principle of balance; composition, colors and forms. Unlike Kandinsky?s Composition VIII, we wanted to create depth using 3-dimensional forms and contrast of colors. Furthermore, the background merges with the foreground to create a linear yet dynamic visual narrative for the spectator. Elements like the shapes balancing on each other, the contrast of subtle background against the vibrant colors, create harmony yet a sense of intrigue and constitutes to a well-composed artwork. The veneer that the artwork is laser-cut and made out of, adds the texture and grains as well as a sense of direction adding another layer of detailing.
