Acrobatic gymnastics, a captivating discipline that seamlessly blends athleticism with artistic expression, transcends the conventional boundaries of sports to emerge as a compelling art form. At its core, acrobatic gymnastics combines strength, flexibility, and precision, transforming the human body into a dynamic canvas where gravity-defying feats unfold. (thank you ChatGPT, I couldn’t have done this any better myself :)).
Just as an introduction to say that Acrobatics is ART! But what if you would like to capture this beautiful sport as artistic as possible, and what if you could actually have this work available as large prints?
Meet AcrobARTics, a collection of artistry photos taken by Christian Degroote, also known as Acrofoto, a passionate (acro) photographer for almost 10 years!
