Sand painting, also known as "sand art," is a form of art in which colored sand, often from various natural sources, is used to create an image or design. The technique of sand painting on paper can be done by mixing the sand with glue or other binding agents, and then applying it to the paper surface. The 1960s was a time of significant artistic experimentation and it's possible that some artists may have used this technique to create abstract paintings during this period. Some of the artists who were experimenting with new techniques and materials during the 1960s, such as the American artist Robert Morris and the German artist Otto Piene, were known to have incorporated sand into their work. Sand painting can be a challenging medium to work with, as the sand can be difficult to control, but it can also create unique and interesting visual effects when used by experienced and skilled artists. It's worth noting that sand paintings on paper are not usually considered long lasting art pieces and are hard to preserve over time. Provenance : VIP estate in Ibiza Spain. See less
