Arctic 70n 60e

Creative Rationale

Over the Barents Sea north of Russia and Norway, this arctic location experiences intense atmospheric pressure gradients and extreme cold with significant temperature anomalies. The steep pressure gradient of 46.71 Pa/cell translates into dense archaeological layers of paint, while the massive 29.1K temperature anomaly creates chaotic marks breaking through structured compositions. The moderate wind from the northwest adds gestural energy to underlying layers, and the high humidity of 87% makes previous paint layers show through like translucent palimpsests of memory and time.
