Seashell Crab-like Beetle Sculpture – Speculative Relic in Steel and Shell
This miniature sculpture is a fusion of natural marine material and speculative entomology. The delicate layering of deep-black clam shells mimics the exoskeletal armor of a futuristic beetle, mounted onto a precisely laser-cut steel structure. Housed in a shadowbox frame, this object blurs the boundaries between scientific artifact and mythological specimen.
Designed to evoke the fossil of an undiscovered species, it speaks to those intrigued by deep time, alternate evolution, and the dark aesthetics of nu-gothic or neo-colonial interiors. Whether displayed on a wall or used as a contemplative accent on a desk, it serves as a conversation piece that fuses art, nature, and imagination.

Cold-formed steel (S235)
Natural sea clam shells
Dimensions:
15 × 10 × 3 cm
Weight:
210 g
