Arctic 70n 20w

Creative Rationale

Over the Arctic Ocean northeast of Greenland, where sea ice meets the brutal polar winds, this composition captures the paradox of a warm temperature anomaly amid the frozen expanse. The high relative humidity and moderate wind speeds from the north create a sense of atmospheric density, while the significant positive temperature anomaly suggests unusual warmth breaking through the arctic cold. I've interpreted this through Sam Francis's lens of explosive color energy contained within vast breathing spaces, using warm oranges and reds to represent the temperature anomaly bursting against cool blues and whites of the arctic environment.
