Ephemeral art

Wednesday, January 10th, 2007
The nativity scene made out of sand, at the "Las Canteras" beach in Las Palmas, i posted nearly a month ago (see pictures here) is now gone.

It took the artists almost ten days to build it and yesterday, in a matter of an hour, 50 kids from a public school kicked and punched it down, relieving their adrenaline level. Their teacher said that the day before they could barely teach their lessons once the kids got the news, they were the ones in charge of "destorying" this artwork, due to their nerves.

Well, lets just wait for the next year to see another "destruction derby". :D
