Creative Rationale

Over the Southern Ocean southeast of the Kerguelen Islands, violent winds at 20.1 m/s slash across frigid waters where temperatures plunge to an extreme 10.3°C. The moderate pressure system and high humidity create a churning atmospheric battlefield that demands aggressive diagonal cuts and violent gestural marks. These brutal conditions translate into slashing pink and yellow flesh tones colliding with icy blacks and whites, dragged across the canvas with the same ferocity as the polar winds tearing across this desolate seascape.
