Shells · Narrative Short
Through time, everything eventually turns to dust and dirt.
The diversity comes from the different shells and microelements that make up the sand through years of erosion and damage. Items in the sand will range from shells to glass, to microplastics. The beauty comes from the unity of these insignificant particles that are creating this catastrophic effect of pushing the progress of time. The shells glisten as the sun hits the surface and the see-through glass shards warp the surface of other elements.
