This was a four-day competition and had 10 master sculpture artists from around the world including contestants from Europe, North America and Asia. These works of art were created just using sand and water to hold them together.
I am amazed that these are still standing even after a few storms have past through.
Here's a picture of my favorite created by Andrius Petkus, Vilnius, Lithuania.
