The Geometric Sand Fortresses of Calvin Seibert #ArtTuesday
There’s something about bringing a great deal of patience, skill, and artistry to a childhood pastime. It’s sort of like having grilled cheese sandwiches in a super fancy restaurant. Calvin Siebert’s doing something like that with his astonishing sand castles. Here’s more from COLOSSAL:
Like many kids with a love for digging in sandboxes, Calvin Seibert (previously) grew up creating grand castles and towers from piles of the sediment. But for Seibert, the practice wasn’t just a childhood pastime. “In hindsight I see that much of what I made was more like sculpture. It really was all about the object and its resonant meanings rather than interiors and spatial flow,” he says.
