Voyage de la Vie

Dedicated to the amazing Alexey. This is based on his photos from Singapore, 2010, where he worked in the circus show "Voyage de la Vie", but I think his real voyage was beyond the stage through the many beautiful sights and places, from botanic gardens to Zoo and Chinatown.

He also took a trip on an ocean cruiser, where he performed a lot of contortion as well, so that's what inspired this work. Much like the Shaolin monks who sometimes spend the entire day in stretchy positions while doing even the most mundane activities, Alexey also seems to follow this rule, even taking a holiday doesn't mean a break from contortion! And who'd ever want to take a break from contortion if they had his flexibility!! XD
