Sand and glass, light and shadow, movements of the artist’s hands and imagination create images that replace each other in front of the audience… This creates a sand story.

Sand graphic artists amaze with techniques and techniques in this original and new form of graphic art, which has been successfully and rapidly developing, replenished by talented artists for more than 50 years.
