Creative Rationale

Over the Greenland Sea in the high Arctic, where ice meets turbulent waters under polar skies, the atmosphere churns with intense energy. The strong northwesterly winds at nearly 20 m/s drive a dynamic composition of geometric forms that seem to spiral and drift across the canvas, while the low pressure system creates a sense of gravitational pull toward dense clusters of shapes. The extreme cold and high humidity manifest as crystalline blues and whites punctuated by warming anomaly colors, with the light precipitation adding a gentle texture of scattered smaller elements that dance between the major suprematist forms.
