Parkour…as life.

As an artist, I believe it is important to experience other art whenever possible. And by experience, I mean observe. Attempting to actively participate in every art form you come into contact with makes you loose focus on your own. When I struggle with creation, I find inspiration from observing other creative things. Enter Parkour. “Parkour is a non-competitive, physical discipline of French origin in which participants run along a route, attempting to negotiate obstacles in the most efficient way possible, using only their bodies. Skills such as jumping, climbing, vaulting, rolling, swinging and wall scaling are employed.” In other words, these cats have taken what they were given (arms and legs) and made the world into their own personal playground. – STANZA
