Australasia 60s 100e

Creative Rationale

This location sits in the remote Southern Ocean, roughly 60 degrees south latitude and 100 degrees east longitude, in the vast waters between Antarctica and the southern coast of Australia. The extremely low pressure (953.2 Pa) creates a composition dominated by fewer, heavier geometric forms that seem to sink through the white space, while the moderate wind from 200 degrees tilts these suprematist shapes at dynamic diagonal angles suggesting movement across the canvas. The bitter cold temperature drives the palette toward deep blacks and blues, with the high humidity and light precipitation adding scattered small rectangular forms like geometric snow falling through this austere Antarctic atmosphere.
