I wouldn't consider your image to be minimalist. The best definition I can
find describes the movement as reducing art to the absolute minimum number
of colors, shapes, textures, etc. that will get the idea across. A black
cross on a white background would be a good example.  An interesting
concept for an artist using a ray tracer.  If anything, art done with all
the power of POV-Ray could be considered "Maximalist!"
