Time shapes much of our existence; time to go, time to stop, keeping time, saving time, wasting time, and filling the moments between our first and last breaths. We search and sift through the sands of life, seeking meaning and purpose.

These boats reference sand play therapy, a therapeutic technique that uses sand, toys, and miniatures to help people express themselves without words. It’s a combination of art therapy and play therapy that can help people explore their feelings, memories, and experiences.
