This theme celebrates the natural beauty of the flawed and the weathered, embracing simplicity, asymmetry, and the passage of time. Artists are encouraged to express how imperfections can enhance rather than detract, revealing a deeper, more authentic beauty that resonates with the essence of life itself.
