Local Sand Trivia

Tills svensk text om landet hunnit översättas –  här är en engelsk: Sand and art coexist. It’s a paint ingredient and it makes white pigment. Sand grains blew and attached onto wet Monet canvasses and Picasso and Dali added sand to get their aspired results. The Guatemalan artist Karla Higueros adds sand in her paintings to enhance energy, emotions, and spirituality embedded in her art. Sand she says ”is a live piece in which there is an interaction of my feelings, my thoughts, desires, and dreams so real like the sharpness and toughness of each grain of sand”.
