Don’t worry about rain
Although we will wet, but nothing happens to the sculptures – they are surprisingly robust. The rainwater drains into the sand and evaporates when it stops raining. During severe rainstorms, the horizontal surfaces might show little dents where the raindrops hit the surface, but this will not affect the whole sculpture. They can be easily repaired if wear and tear should occur.
