About This Aquascape
A serene water surface, covered with floating plants and fallen botanicals, evokes the atmosphere of a landscape suspended in time. The "embrace" of roots occupies the foreground, their curved forms accompanied by the gentle movement of fish extending into the background. They embody motion — the heartbeat, the pulse, the veins that nourish what breathes above the water.
