Arctic 60n 70w
Creative Rationale
Over the Arctic Ocean northeast of Baffin Bay, where sea ice meets open water in the perpetual dance of freeze and thaw. The remarkably warm temperature anomaly and high humidity create an atmosphere of transition and intensity, while the moderate wind from the northeast drives gestural energy across the composition. The high pressure system calls for Mitchell's characteristic luminous ground to shine through dense clusters of saturated color that respond to this Arctic microclimate's unexpected warmth.
