Description
This handcrafted mosaic artwork depicts a sea turtle becoming one with the underwater world. Created on a wooden base decorated with a mix of mosaic materials – including glass, ceramic, and tile.
The principle of recycling plays a central role in this piece: the mosaic fragments, glass pebbles, ceramic elements, and the central heart-shaped brown accent are all repurposed materials given new life through art. This composition not only holds visual appeal but also carries a deeper message – it draws attention to the fragility of nature and the threats facing wildlife, especially marine ecosystems.
The turtle, in many cultures, symbolizes the cycle of life, timelessness, and natural balance. In this artwork, the turtle appears as a guardian figure, linking land and water. The background features flowing shades of blue, green, and white mosaic tiles, evoking the movement of water. Glass pebbles and small embellishments sparkle like droplets, enhancing the natural, aquatic feel of the piece.
This is a one-of-a-kind handmade creation.
🎁 Perfect gift for nature lovers, or anyone drawn to turtles and aquatic themes.
🖼️ Easy to hang with the pre-mounted sawtooth hanger on the back.
