The exhibition showcases both Australian and international
artists and will stop beachgoers in their sandy tracks with
sculptures such as a red flipflop sandal and a dismembered
rhinoceros with its feet in the air.
The annual event, which began in 1997 and is free to the public,
received close to 500 submissions this year from sculptors in 27
countries around the world.
It runs until Nov. 6 and is expected to attract thousands of
visitors working on their tan amidst the huge sculptures.
