These are not green grapes; in this country they are white grapes. If you think about it, this makes a lot of sense since the wine made from these grapes is white and not green. Red grapes are still called red grapes. But you know black grapes? They're really dark and juicy, and the same colour of blueberries? Well, here they're called blue grapes, which again makes sense since I just said they're the same colour as blueberries.
Anyway ... Ross is very busy right now so he hasn't posted about this really cool workshop that he went to a couple days ago. Keith Tam, another of our former professors from Emily Carr who is now teaching in Hong Kong, also is currently touring some students around this part of the world. His students along with Ross' class gathered at Scheveningen to participate in a workshop hosted by Underware, which is a major type design studio in The Hague.
Their mission was to carve the phrase "I know what I know" into the sand in both English and Chinese script into the sand in characters about one meter high. The results are very cool. Unfortunatly he forgot his camera, but Underware's documentation of the project can be found here (it's called Sandman), and I recommend checking it out, as well as the documentation of the other workshops they've hosted, too.
