3rd entry for May 4, 2010






These were 2-minute poses. As K- was explaining, part of the process of being on stilts is staying in motion - like a bicycle, once a direction is established, one moves with that.
Keeping still is the toughest: it would be like balancing upright on an unmoving bicycle. The altered centre of gravity adds to the challenge of finding balance on two pads smaller than a foot, and where added height magnifies any imbalances. So these poses entail him finding some third point of support.
