The Art Of Rock Balancing

The Art Of Rock Balancing

Art

The Art Of Rock Balancing

Rock balancing (also stone balancing, or stacking) is a form of recreation, art, or expression in which rocks are balanced on top of one another. Consequently they are often assembled in a precarious manner.

This is accomplished in various positions without the use of adhesives, wires, supports, rings or any other contraptions which would help maintain the construction’s balance. – WIKIPEDIA

Subsequently we’ve gathered a small gallery of example showcasing how cool this can be when spotted in nature.

“There will always be rocks in the road ahead of us. They will be stumbling blocks or stepping stones; it all depends on how you use them.” – Friedrich Nietzsche

Many of us have spotted mysterious balanced rock sculptures sprinkled in nature. This video of a very skilled and patient Rock balancer Michael Grab. Although this video shows the true dedication it takes in both real-time and time lapse.

Furthermore if you have nature-loving kiddo this inspiring video might just inspire them to start practicing the art of Counterbalance!

This video was created by Michael Grab.

Michael Grab has been a daily practitioner for 10 years and has balanced rock sculptures in 23 different countries around the world.

Words of Wisdom

Words of Wisdom – J.M. Barrie

Sir James Matthew Barrie, 1st Baronet born in 1860  was a Scottish novelist and playwright, best remembered today as the creator of Peter Pan. The legend of Neverland, Tinkerbell, and Peter Pan will live on for generations.

He was born and educated in Scotland but moved to London, where he wrote a number of successful novels and plays. There he met the Llewelyn Davies boys, who inspired him to write children’s stories including the timeless classic Peter Pan.  Barrie unofficially adopted the Davies boys following the deaths of their parents.

Barrie was made a baronet by George V on 14 June 1913, and a member of the Order of Merit in the 1922 New Year Honours. Before his death, he gave the rights to the Peter Pan works to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London, which continues to benefit from them.
