Creative Rationale
Over the Arctic Ocean northeast of Baffin Bay, where frigid air masses collide with maritime influences, the atmospheric conditions reveal a dynamic tension between stillness and motion. The moderate wind from the northeast creates gentle diagonal arrangements of geometric forms, while the relatively low pressure manifests as fewer, more substantial shapes dominating the white expanse. The extreme cold temperature drives a palette of deep blacks and blues, punctuated by bold primaries that float weightlessly across the vertical canvas like suprematist elements suspended in cosmic space.
