Costa Dvorezky’s new works – Zero Gravity – put the spotlight on the human body. The focus is on the agility of acrobats suspended in mid-air on circus props such as hoops and the trapeze.
Aerial acrobatics put the human figure at odds with gravity and, consequently, the effect of risk. In his works, Dvorezky also expresses the feeling of freedom and lightness that inspires these daredevils to push their bodies to the physical limit. –Galerie D’Este

His work is amazing. There is such a sense of being on the brink of “letting go” in those Zero Gravity figures. Breathtaking.
Very astute on the letting go point. I agree with you they’re breathtaking.
Oh Wow! It’s like a video game I played!
Well that’s a particularly fascinating perspective!
Super. Gorgeous. “Unsettling” as the reviewer noted, deliciously so, I say.
And I agree, thanks. Well put.
Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed.
