Levitation

“Levitation” is one of a more recent sculptural nude series by Michael Ezra. Executed in Ezra’s characteristic silky black-and-white style, this series is a meditation on the elusive sense of liberty we experience when we sleep – or when we fully let go of restrictions and expectations. The works radiate a sense of a different reality as models effortlessly float in the air, the lines and forms of their bodies beautifully unaffected by pressures of the floor surface. The Levitation series honors the concepts and style developed by Michael Ezra in his dark room silver prints – and at the same time it openly dispenses with limitations of physical reality, celebrating the creative freedom.
