Orbitals

This series, Orbitals, explores the fluid tension of human bodies suspended within fragmented universes. While the work originated from a collaboration with circus artists like Fred Deb, it has evolved into a broader study of the acrobatic body in transition. These figures—acrobats, Olympic athletes, and cliff divers—are captured in aerial or marine environments where gravity is momentarily suspended.
