Creative Rationale
Over the Bermuda Triangle region in the Atlantic, where warm subtropical waters meet dynamic atmospheric forces, the moderate wind and high humidity create conditions ripe for Francis-inspired color explosions. The elevated sea-level pressure and warm temperature anomaly translate into dense pools of saturated color accumulating at the canvas edges, while the gentle but persistent southwest wind drives cadmium red and ultramarine blue outward in gestural bursts. The high humidity manifests as soft, blurred edges where colors bleed into the luminous white space that dominates the center, creating that characteristic Francis breathing room.
