| Description |
As a child, Dutch visual/performance artist Nick Steur played with pebbles. When he grew up he rediscovered the material and created a performance placing stones on top of each other. That’s right, he balances rocks, and it’s simply mind-boggling. But not stacks of round, flat stones: often large, awkward looking oddities, vertically integrating them in ways that defy the laws of physics. No glue, magnets or tricks are involved. Nick says it’s all about focus and “finding the balance between your own force of will, and that of the stone”. |
