Beach Exploration: Nature Versus Government
THE ASSET: MBD-25-ICW-002
Official Title: Beach Exploration: A Work in Progress
Series: Unfinished Works (The Littoral Studies)
Classification: Living Vital Artifact (LVA) / Mixed Media Assemblage
Stewardship Fee: $1,800.00 USD
THE PHILOSOPHY
" The ocean does not distinguish between the treasure and the weapon. It reclaims them both."
This artifact captures a silent, enduring conversation between the Environment we impose and the Natural World that surrounds us. It evokes a moment of profound discovery on the coastal edge, urging the Steward to consider the lasting dialogue between construction and decay. This piece remains intentionally "Unfinished" because the tide never stops moving; the work of reclamation is never done.
THE COMPOSITION (Visual Analysis)
The work is defined by a striking visual dialogue between rigid structure and organic flow.
The Foundation: A vivid, textured canvas in deep crimson and rose hues (evoking the "Red Clay" meeting the "Red Tide") is bisected by a stark, painted wooden plank—a raft of order in a chaotic sea.
The Juxtaposition: Organic elements—polished white shells, vibrant moss, and stone—are arranged in tension with industrial discards.
The Narrative Anchor: Note the proximity of the Sea Shell to the Brass Cartridge Casing. One shell housed life; the other housed force. Both are now equalized by the artist's hand.
THE PROVENANCE PACKAGE
This piece is designated as a Living Artifact and ships with the complete Moore By Design Legacy Archive.
The Steward's Journal: Contains the complete philosophical codex behind the "Unfinished Works" series, detailing the origins of the specific beach where these items were foraged.
The Hidden Story: The specific coordinates of the find and the history of the materials are reserved exclusively for the one who accepts its stewardship.
