A wonderful substance that was born almost with the earth

In the long process of evolution, thousands of subdivision types have gradually appeared.

Such a rich and varied form has given human beings who love "tossing" great creative and imaginative space.

All kinds of novel art related to stones also came into being.

Italian brothers used sand and stones from the seaside to spell out all kinds of interesting works with their sons.

And the strange man to be introduced today has once again played the stone to a new height.

These seemingly incredible works are all from the Canadian stone balance artist michael grab.

"Oh my god, how is that possible? You must have used glue or any special fixing props. " This is the most frequently heard sentence by Greb, and the answer is of courseno. Greb did not argue with the audience, but patiently started his own performance. Only when you see that he really piles up seemingly unrelated stones into a work of art with his bare hands will you believe that there is really a "magician" who controls gravity in the world.

Graeb called this wonderful art "gravity glue" because gravity is the only "adhesive" between these stones.

Nine years ago, he was just an ordinary college student. By chance, he tried to pile a few stones on the beach, but his interest was ignited because he found himself with a strange talent for balance. From then on, he was completely addicted to it. He spends a lot of time doing meditation training every day to calm himself down; Look for the smallest bulge of each stone and concentrate on capturing the vibration of the stone. "Sometimes stones will challenge my limits, but most of the time I have the last laugh."

It is this persistence and unyielding attitude that makes him one of the only five stone balance masters in the world. Many viewers like to ask him for the secret of balance. In this regard, he explained that he was not from the physical mechanics class: "The key to balance is to find a fulcrum, which requires at least three contact points." A seemingly simple sentence, but behind it is a lot of training and trying.

Gleb's performance lasted for several minutes and hours. No matter what kind of stones, even the smoothest pebbles, he can always find tiny cracks as fulcrums with great patience. "I have to admit that I broke the stone into this ghost by mysterious intuition and a lot of experience."

Now, folding stones is not just Graeb's hobby. He said it's more like a special therapy, which can keep his heart calm. When he was performing, he was very eager to convey his thoughts to the audience: anything is possible, not just a follower, but to calm down and try to find and create his own possibilities.

Recently, Master Michael came to Shanghai and erected a "monster" in Xintiandi. A "Bumblebee" super sports car was supported by eleven stones of different sizes and shapes, which made me rain or shine. You know, this incredible giant device also doesn't need any glue and external tools at all, and you have to sigh the superb skills of the master.

He also demonstrated the process of piling stones for the audience. In his hands, ordinary stones seem to be endowed with life, overcome gravity and combine with each other to form this exquisite work of art.

This time, in fact, Michael was invited by Chevrolet to present this wonderful "gravity magic" together with Camaro RS, which also kicked off the sixth generation Chevrolet Camaro Balance Art Exhibition. Compared with the previous generation, the sixth-generation Camaro lost more than 178kg, which is called "the lightest Camaro in history". Coupled with the 50: 50 counterweight, this "super power" combined with Michael's extremely accurate "gravity glue" technology finally presented this shocking and exciting gravity art performance.

The 6th Chevrolet Camaro Balanced Art Exhibition will last until April 2nd, just outside the atrium on the first floor of Li Nan Shopping Center in Shanghai New World. Don't miss the master's works! There will also be an interactive game of piling stones on site to let you experience the fun of controlling gravity. Maybe you are the next master of balance!
