Join us and create colorful Sunae (sand art) with the extraordinary visiting artist, Naoshi! She will be visiting Schenectady for this very special workshop in celebration of her June 2024 Bear and Bird NY solo exhibition entitled "Beary-Tale Forest" ?❤️? - you will not want to miss this rare chance to work with her directly as she teaches you how to make SUNAE ART!
Naoshi's artwork is not painted or drawn, instead every color and pattern you see is created using fine grains of brightly colored shiny sand. ⭐️
Sunae (Sand Art) is made with brightly colored fine grain sand on adhesive paper.
You can find more detail on her website here explaining the process. ?

About Naoshi:
Naoshi was born in Iwate, Japan, and currently lives in Los Angeles. She works with the medium of sand art known as Sunae in Japanese. Using brightly colored, shiny grains of sand, she visualizes a fantastical world of her own, imbued with a sense of nostalgia. Naoshi began her career as a Sunae artist in 2004 in Japan, and since 2007 she has exhibited her work internationally in the U.S.A, Italy, France, Switzerland, Germany, China, Korea, and Taiwan. For Naoshi, Sunae is a visual tool to express unique worldviews. In addition to creating her own artworks, Naoshi makes Sunae kits, which are available to the public, and runs workshops in the hope of sharing the joy of using this expressive art form.
