Overview

  • Greenpeace UK collaborated with Sand In Your Eye to craft a 55×40m sand portrait of Donald Trump near his Turnberry golf resort in Scotland.
  • The artwork included the message 'Time to resist - fight the billionaire takeover,' criticizing Trump's climate policies and corporate alliances.
  • The protest marked Trump's first 100 days in office, during which the U.S. exited the Paris Climate Agreement and supported fossil fuel projects.
  • The sand artwork, visible only from the air, was created overnight and subsequently washed away by the tide.
  • This is the second protest at Turnberry in two months, following pro-Palestinian graffiti actions in March targeting Trump's policies and business interests.
