sand bowls by leetal rivlin

‘sand bowl’ by leetal rivlin

tel-aviv-based industrial design student leetal rivlin has captured the movement of sand and frozen it into a usable object. the bowl is hand-made by mixing the grains of sand with an adhesive. the viscous liquid is then allowed to drip and harden into the form of the container. various layers give the impression of preserved movement.
