South Asia

Creative rationale

Over the warm waters of the South China Sea near the equator at 100 degrees east longitude, where tropical maritime air masses create a humid, unstable atmosphere. The moderate precipitation and very high humidity of 87% inspire deep pools of translucent color that bleed and merge across the canvas, while the gentle southwest wind guides the directional flow of these color stains. The warm temperature anomaly translates into luminous washes of salmon pink and golden ochre that soak outward with soft edges, contrasted by cooler teal and cerulean pools where the atmospheric pressure gradient creates subtle tilting flows.
