Growing Up With Grains of Sand emerged from our nostalgia of playing with sand as children and the desire to reconnect with this material in adulthood. We now engage with its more refined form—glass.
Through our creations, we aimed to reveal a new perspective on sand: highlighting the uniqueness of each grain through adult eyes. Using a microscope, we uncovered the distinct colors, shapes, patterns, and textures of individual grains. We composed grains together into «microscopic sandcastles» which we expressed in blown glass forms.
Our work recaptures the freedom sand provided in childhood and blends it with an environmentally conscious mindset in adulthood. By engaging with all forms of this material, we invite others to appreciate the delicate interplay of versatility, resilience, and playfulness in life.
