Photographer David Perkins has released a collection of images that showcase dancers in their own homes. These images feature talented dancers conducting daily activities as they strike unnatural poses.
Each dancer showcases their talent in a unique way by leaping and posing in the comfort of their own homes. Each image showcases a new location and new daily task. There are images of dancers leaping midair as they make their bed. Other images show a woman on her tiptoes as she reaches for her morning pot of coffee.
The images reveal the talent and dedication that it takes to become a successful dancer. There is no end to the practice and there is always room for perfection in the eyes of each dancer. David Perkins' photo series eliminates the studio, hairstylists and makeup artists and lighting to show the dancers in a raw and real way.
