Western Pacific 0n 140e
Creative Rationale
Over the vast tropical waters of the western Pacific Ocean near the equator and east of the Philippines, dynamic atmospheric forces create a canvas of movement and energy. The moderate wind speeds from the northwest and high humidity levels inspire sweeping gestural forms that flow across the composition, while the warm temperatures and light precipitation manifest as luminous pools of saturated color that gather at the edges, leaving expansive breathing space in the center characteristic of Sam Francis's mature works.
