Over the Southern Ocean southwest of the Kerguelen Islands, where fierce winds and high pressure systems create dynamic atmospheric conditions. The strong 12.4 m/s winds inspire a staccato rhythm of many small geometric elements, while the high pressure of 1024.7 hPa creates buoyant shapes that rise toward the upper canvas. The extremely cold 10°C temperature translates into deep bass circles and thick black forms, contrasting with occasional warm yellow accents representing pressure variations.
