Just some tips how to create a sand sculpture:

In order to create a sand sculpture you need tools (for example,something from a kitchen or workshop). A shovel, masonry trowels, spatulas, spoons, knives, brushes, spray bottle with water will be of great help. Place. Find the right type of sand, make a test: pick up a fistful of sand (wet) and make a ball out of it, it must be intact after rolling. Your place must be far from water. Foundation. Dig until you hit wet sand, that’s the right foundation. And then start making you sculpture, don’t be hasty, think about form of your future sculpture, its details and parts. And, please, admire your sculpture only when you perfectly know, that it’s ready. Good luck!

Hi, sorry for this awful delay in response. Unfortunately, I am based in the US and can’t provide you with the exact info about this exhibition.
