sand drawings


Sandroing (or sand drawing) is a unique tradition involving drawing geometric figures directly onto the ground with one or two
fingers. Vanuatu sandroings are quite distinct from other forms of ground-based art because they are executed as cursive or
continuous lines. Each design is a type of maze, where the line of the drawing is traced in a largely uninterrupted path, without
lifting the finger from the ground.
