Creative Rationale
Over the high Altiplano of Bolivia near the border with Chile, where extreme altitude creates an almost alien atmospheric environment, the severely low pressure and cold temperatures with minimal humidity suggest a stark, crystalline landscape. The very low pressure gradient translates to a more open Mondrian grid with fewer dividing lines, allowing large white fields to dominate, while the extreme cold shifts the composition toward blue dominance with the calm winds maintaining a relatively balanced asymmetry.
