The ephemeral elegance of Jben Beach’s large-scale sand drawings

Jehan-Benjamin Tarain, widely recognized by his artistic alias Jben Beach, has captivated audiences with his breathtaking large-scale sand drawings. As a project manager and web designer by trade, Jben harnesses his artistic prowess to transform mundane beaches into elaborate canvases of awe-inspiring land art. Armed with a simple rake, Jben carves intricate and precise patterns that tell stories in the sand, drawing passersby into the transient beauty of his creations. His journey into beach art began serendipitously in March 2014, sparked by a desire to explore this unique form of expression. On the beaches of the Royan estuary — where his childhood footsteps left their mark — Jben began his artistic venture, which quickly evolved from a passionate hobby into a celebrated international artistic endeavor.

These ephemeral masterpieces have not only become a personal calling for Jben, but they have also garnered international recognition, allowing him to transcend geographical boundaries. From the windswept shores of France’s Charente-Maritime to the bustling beaches of New York, and stretching to the serene coasts of Portugal and Morocco, his artistry speaks a universal language of creativity. Jben’s ability to balance artistry and impermanence highlights the connection between humans and nature — encouraging people to appreciate the beauty and fragility of our environment. Each creation, while fleeting, leaves a lasting impact on those fortunate enough to witness the blending of artistry and nature, solidifying Jben Beach’s status as a trailblazer in the world of land art.
