Creative Rationale

Over the frozen Arctic Ocean northeast of the Urals, where ice meets the endless polar night, atmospheric forces create a mystical dance of pressure and wind. The moderate winds at 6.5 m/s generate flowing, spiral energies while the near-saturated humidity of 97% manifests as soft, ethereal forms that seem to breathe and pulse. The extreme cold and slight precipitation inspire delicate crystalline geometries nested within organic, biomorphic shapes, rendered in Hilma af Klint's palette of mystical pastels and deep saturated purples and blues.
