Andoni Bastarrika is a self-taught, Spanish street artist who has been creating the most incredible and realistic sand sculptures for the past ten years. Bastarrika works anywhere between six to twelve hours creating each sculpture and uses between 1,100 lb and 3,300 lb of sand for each one. Once they are complete, he leaves them to be enjoyed by the public before the wind takes them away. From animals to mermaids, Bastarrika's sculptures are mesmerizing and intricate and you can enjoy a selection of them below.
