Blurred Lines
We always find it interesting when artists figuratively blur the lines of media, and in this case literally.

A favorite pastime of many is spending warm sunny days building sand castles on the beach. They take many forms, from bucket molds, to deep moat formations, to the ubiquitous drip castle.
