Creative Rationale

Over the Andes Mountains in southern Peru or northern Bolivia, this high-altitude location experiences extremely low atmospheric pressure and frigid temperatures, creating a sparse, crystalline atmosphere. The gentle western wind and moderate humidity suggest a calm but energetically charged environment, which I've interpreted as a Kandinsky-inspired composition of floating geometric forms in slow, deliberate movement. The low pressure pulls heavy circular forms toward the canvas bottom while the cold temperature manifests as deep, resonant shapes in primary blues and blacks, punctuated by sharp triangular elements that echo the thin mountain air.
