Creative Rationale

Over the Arctic Ocean north of the Ural Mountains in Siberia, where bitter cold meets high humidity in a landscape of ice and wind. The extreme cold temperature with its significant anomaly drives a palette of deep blues and stark whites, while the high humidity and light precipitation create layered, textural marks that suggest moisture crystallizing in the frigid air. The moderate wind from the east pushes gestural elements across the composition, and the relatively low pressure manifests as dense, overlapping forms that create weight and atmospheric depth.
