This September, get ready for Sandsational Fun at Sentosa under the sun!
- ‘Uniquely Singaporean’ sand sculptures to feature local culture, quirks and humour
- Sentosa International Sand Sculpting Championship to host 14 international sculptors
- Internationally acclaimed Singaporean sand artist JOOHeng Tan to showcase immersive sand works commemorating his 20-year sand art career
Anchoring the three-week festival is Sentosa Sandsation 2017 which will feature more than 30 intricately-carved sand sculptures, up to heights of 4.9 metres. Spread over 2,400 square metres of exhibition space on Siloso Beach, guests will walk through three zones showcasing different experiences, from day to night.
Created by award-winning Singaporean sand sculptor JOOHeng Tan and his team of international sculptors, the first zone will showcase 15 three-dimensional sculptures inspired by local culture, quirks and colloquial slangs. Depicting various facets of Singaporeans’ everyday life, both past and present, guests will be taken through the multi-sensory exhibits which marry visuals with audio in the story-telling, as well as lighting effects after dark.
Sentosa Sandsation 2017 will also present the Sentosa International Sand Sculpting Championship
14 sand masters from around the globe will showcase their creative expressions of ‘Imagination’ through sand work. Sculpting for the competition will take place in the second zone of the exhibition from 28 – 31 August 2017, with the top three winners walking away with cash prizes totalling more than S$12,000.
JOOHeng, whose works have been showcased in over 60 cities across more than 20 countries, will celebrate his 20th year of transforming ordinary sand into incredible artworks through a series of interactive sand art pieces in the third zone. Titled Shifting Sand 2, this showcase pays homage to JOOHeng’s exhibition held at Sentosa’s Palawan Beach back in 2010, when he became the first sand sculptor in Singapore to hold his own sand sculpture exhibition.
Children's Contest
In addition, a contest will be held from 10-28 August, where children aged 5-12 years old in Singapore may submit sketches of their imagination, envisioning the future of Singapore in the year 2040. The winning sketch will then be transformed into a sand art by JOOHeng to be showcased at Shifting Sand 2 from 15-17 September 2017. More details of the contest will be announced on Sentosa’s Facebook page.
Beyond Sentosa Sandsation, guests will also get to indulge in sumptuous thematic food & beverage offerings along the beach, special staycation packages, on top of unwinding in the evenings with Merlion Magic Lights and Movies by the Beach (on select nights).
