We’re having a
hard time deciding whether Michael Grab is an artist or a magician,
because he creates stunning structure from finely balanced rocks
that seem to defy the law of physics.
These seemingly
impossible structures require intense concentration and meditative
focus. In the video below, Grab spends several minutes nearly
frozen, making tiny adjustments until he gets all of the rocks’
centers of gravity just right.
“Over
the past few years of practicing rock balance, simple curiosity has
evolved into therapeutic ritual, ultimately nurturing meditative
presence, mental well-being, and artistry of design,” writes Grab
in his artist statement.
