Asana Hybrids

‘’Asana Hybrids’’ is a study of yoga postures (asana), and the human body. Asana is a Sanskrit word that means stable and comfortable seat, and is the physical aspect of the yogic practice. There are a lot of postures and variations, a lot of them which are named after animals, or natures elements. In this project, human form is literally combined with the asana name, forming a hybrid. Some poses are more obvious than others, so the creation of the hybrid can be a very interesting process, trying also to understand the lines and forms, using other perspectives and ways to merge the elements together. There is simplicity in the depiction and aesthetics. It feels like recording a fictional kind of species.
