Creative Rationale
Over the Siberian Arctic Ocean northeast of the Urals, where sea ice meets endless tundra, the atmosphere holds a mystical stillness. The nearly saturated air and gentle western winds create flowing, organic forms, while the relatively high pressure manifests as large encompassing circles and sacred geometric patterns. The cold temperature calls forth soft pastels and ethereal tones, with the high humidity translating into botanical, biomorphic shapes that seem to breathe and pulse with Arctic life force.
