Sand Art



























Jim Denevan (born 1961) is an American artist who creates temporary land art. He works with natural materials to create massive scaledrawings in sand, ice, and soil. His sculptures are not placed in the landscape, rather, the landscape is the means of their creation. Often aerial photography or video is needed to comprehend the final work

This reminds me of that video we watched in class on Thursday about that guy who travels and makes art out of nature. It's very beautiful but the only problem about putting it on the beach is that it will wash way.

I see we choose the same media! I like the difference. Sandcastles requier stacking and adding sand, while your 'sand art' is created through the subtration of sand. How did you find this, did you type up sand for art of just happen upon this?
