Creative Rationale

Over the Southern Ocean near the Antarctic coastline at 60 degrees south, fierce westerly winds and relatively high humidity create a dynamic maritime atmosphere despite the freezing temperatures. The moderate wind speed of 11.7 m/s from the southwest drives energetic movement through the composition, while the high humidity and significant temperature anomaly inspire bold rectangular fields of primary colors intersected by strong black dividing lines. The near-freezing conditions and maritime location translate into a composition where deep blues dominate the lower portions, while warmer reds and yellows occupy strategic positions to reflect the surprising temperature anomaly in this polar region.
