A striking turquoise accent in thick oil paint bisects the composition vertically, adding contemporary flair to the natural form and a strong contrast with the delicately variegated.

The shell's iridescent chamber, depicted in subtle gradients, seems to pull the viewer into its mysterious depths, suggesting both oceanic origins and abstract cosmic landscapes.
