I love anatomy. There, I said it. During my time studying kinesiology I was also beginning to get deeper into practicing yoga and my infatuation with anatomy via yoga was born. I always keep my eyes peeled for cool videos and images that portray just how f"*king cool the human body really is. Unfortunately, more times than not, the focus of these pieces is on the female skin covering these bones or the consumerism of the clothes these bodies are wearing (or not wearing).
A good doctor friend and fellow anatomy nerd of mine sent me this video and it was just what I was looking for! Refreshing, inspiring and delicious to remind ourselves just how awesome the human skeleton is and what the practice of yoga can do for it. Enjoy.
A visual study/exploration of the body in motion with a focus on yoga poses.
Our goal for this piece was to create a realistic representation of radiological (x-ray) imaging.
Instead of just creating a still image, however, we wanted to combine the beautiful moves of yoga with this new visual approach to bring the full human skeleton to life.
Technical challenges included aspects such as achieving proper bone densities and representing actual bone marrow inside each individual bone.
