Sand in Motion

The pure delight of these performers capture me from the first few sounds. Enjoy the love of dance and music that oozes from these two magical musicians – Nic Gareiss and Maeve Gilchrist. This is the Sand Hunter.

Nic’s passion for knowing more about all things foot percussive has been so much fun to enjoy over the years at workshops and the Celtic Colours International Festival concerts… this clip is with the world renowned Alasdair Fraser and Natalie Haas

Now consider what else you can do with sand. Look at what this amazing artist can create with motion and a few simple tools…Peter Donnelly….listen carefully to his story. He has many interesting things to say about his journey with art, about its reception by the viewer, and about how much power he can feel in the art.

This sand art I was able to see created in Costa Rica in January. There were designs all down the beach!
This photo is from Tico Times of the Whale Tail at Marino Ballena National Park where the sand art was made.
