Calvin's Been Playing On The Beaches Of Hawaii And Creating His Fantastic Geometric Sandcastles Again...

You may remember Calvin Seibert and his amazing sandcastles featured here a couple of years ago.
The New York based artist has just returned from playing on the beaches of Hawaii where he made more of his fantastic sandcastles.
You can see more here.
Using his hands and a plastic tool, Calvin carefully forms the sand, sometimes taking hours or even days, into sculptures that last for mere moments of time before nature and the tides of time reclaim the grains...

Hey Mum, Dad, Called Calvin. Come And Look At My Sandcastles...

Calvin Seibert gave up making conventional sandcastles with a little bucket some time ago and now when time permits for a day at the beach, Calvin the grown-up kid indulges in the influences of architects like Gottfried Bohm, Aldo Rossi and the set designer Adolphe Appia.
And too, the astronomical observatories in Jaipur or work by Paul Rudolph, Lawrence Halprin and Hans Scharoun.
If you've the time to play in the sand, you'll find more of Calvin's sandcastles here...
