Today Xuan and I headed down to Frankston beach to see the ‘Fairytales & Fables’ sand sculpting exhibition (19 January to 6 April 2008) at the Frankston Waterfront, near the pier and Kananook Creek.
The theme of the exhibition is of favourite childhood fairytales and fables from around the world including Jack and the Beanstalk, the Wizard of Oz, Hansel and Gretel, the Tortoise and the Hare, Puss in Boots and quite a few more.
It’s just so amazing how detailed these sculptures are as you can see by the photos below. I also found out that the sand that the sculptors use isn’t ordinary beach sand as this type of sand doesn’t hold together very well. It’s a heavier sand where as each grain is square, so it sticks together better.
