Charlene Lanzel

Sand Artist

Charlene Lanzel is a performance artist from New York City who uses her hands in the sand to create amazing sand art. This is a live performance using just sand, a lightbox and a simple projector. Charlene creates these fluid illustrations for large audiences, with an overhead camera instantaneously projecting onto a large screen for the audience to see.

Charlene Lanzel's sand art, also known as sand animation, is beautiful to look at but lasts only temporarily. Perhaps what makes this art form so appealing, aside from its beauty, is its fragility and ephemeral nature.

Sand Artist, Charlene Lanzel, can perform live at weddings, in theaters, at festival opening or closing ceremonies, at corporate events, and more. Charlene’s sand art can be integrated into dance, concerts, advertising and video. Performances can also be custom created to existing compositions or original musical scores, by request. These custom live presentations can include your own images, logos and themes. A minimum of 2-4 weeks lead time and additional practice times are requested for custom pieces.

Adding special uniqueness to any event, sand art is a new, different and exciting way to communicate a message. It is unbelievable, even when you have experienced it. The powerful impact is indescribable. The story comes alive in this unique art expression. Sand art makes life and time flow by, right in front of your eyes.
