Arctic

Creative rationale

Over the Arctic Ocean at 60°N on the Prime Meridian, where the Greenland Sea meets the edge of the polar ice cap, extreme cold dominates this harsh seascape. The temperature anomaly of 5.2°C above the zonal mean, combined with high humidity and moderate southwestern winds, creates a dynamic tension between the brutal Arctic environment and unexpected atmospheric energy. I've interpreted this as muted earth tones and icy blues pooling heavily at the canvas edges, driven outward by wind-scattered splatters, while the central space breathes with luminous white expanses that evoke the stark beauty of polar light.
