amazing work of art and sand...

(video clip courtesy of lijeeshnair on youtube)

a colleague shared the above video clip "love 2008" yesterday, and i just HAVE to pass it on! such amazing work, unbelievably talented lady - ilana yahav. so so beautiful pieces of art created with just sand and a pair of hands. such a simple concept, natural material, truly breathtaking creation.

watch other sample clips here.

while you're at it, check out her live performances too.
it's so beautiful and touching - the storyline, the music... nearly moved me to tears.

ps: don't forget to turn on your speakers for best effects :)
