entry description
Seeing this man rolling about inside this metal circle amongst the playful crowds in Venice Beach, California reminded me very much of the iconic renaissance drawing that Leonardo Da Vinci had created. In the drawing it is of a man drawn twice, spread eagled, inside a circle accompanied by notes based on the work of Roman Architect Vitruvius. It was to illustrate the divine connection between the human form and the universe. Beloved for its beauty and symbolic power I felt that the real life version was just as mesmerizing.back to gallery
