Creative Rationale

Over the Southern Ocean at 60 degrees south latitude along the Prime Meridian, where the Antarctic Circumpolar Current churns through some of Earth's most dynamic waters. The moderate low pressure system and strong southwesterly winds create a composition of flowing, gestural marks that sweep across the canvas like Tannahill's expressive brushstrokes, while the high humidity and warmer-than-average temperature translate into layered, organic forms with rich surface textures. The absence of precipitation allows for open breathing spaces between dense clusters of mark-making, balancing controlled geometric elements with spontaneous, wind-driven gestures.
