The iconic beach landscape “Ringen aan zee” by Bruno Doedens.

Twenty sand rings of approximately 150 by 300 meters were built up on 12 February 2018 by two silver-colored excavators. Based on GPS, the machines ‘see’ where and how to dig. After more than a week, the first, inner rings were visible – are no less than two and a half meters high. To the outside, the rings are getting lower, up to 1.20 meters. It is estimated that the 150 by three-hundred-meter sand artwork was completely finished after two weeks.

The twenty rings represent 200 years of bathing culture at Scheveningen – The Hague. Sand, wind, air, water. Like nature itself, the artwork will not look exactly the same for a day.
