Creative Rationale

Over the Southern Ocean at 45 degrees south latitude on the prime meridian, frigid Antarctic winds sweep across the vast oceanic expanse with moderate intensity. The relatively high pressure system creates an atmosphere of dispersed energy, while the extreme cold temperature anomaly and moderate humidity generate a stark, crystalline clarity punctuated by veils of moisture. I interpret these conditions through Lewis's calligraphic abstraction as scattered processions of delicate white and silver marks flowing horizontally across a deep blue-black ground, with the moderate wind creating rhythmic clusters that suggest migrating forms moving through the atmospheric field.
