Malcontent – Minimalist Shell Composition Exploring Form, Silence and Wabi-Sabi Aesthetics

This arrangement uses found shells and natural wear to create a restrained coastal still life rooted in Wabi-Sabi principles. The asymmetrical placement, weathered surfaces, and subtle color variation emphasize imperfection, age, and organic balance.
