A group of talented sand sculptors from around the globe came together to create intricate statues in the open air, using a unique and precise technique known only to a select few. This method enables the sand sculptures to endure harsh weather conditions, including strong winds, rain, and even snow. The Sand Museum project featured 42 world-class artists from Russia, Germany, the United States, and Turkey, who spent seven months crafting these remarkable figures. The process required 12,000 tons of sand and 15,000 tons of water to complete.
