Arctic 60n 70w

Creative Rationale

Over the Labrador Sea near the southern tip of Baffin Island, where arctic waters meet the atmosphere in constant negotiation, a significant pressure gradient creates dense archaeological layers of visual information, each stratum telling its own story of atmospheric memory. The substantial temperature anomaly drives chaotic gestural marks that break through more contemplative underlying layers, while the moderate wind energy creates scrubbed, worked surfaces beneath, and the near-saturated humidity renders previous layers translucent and ghostly, allowing the palimpsest of weather to show through like ancient paint scraped back to reveal earlier compositions.
