瘋狂的石頭：平衡達人點石成藝術

These gravity-defying sculptures were created without glue or pins - just painstakingly balanced on one another.
這些違反地球引力的石頭平衡藝術作品沒有使用任何膠水或者釘子，僅僅依靠藝術家不辭辛勞地把石頭一塊塊疊起來並使其保持平衡。

Patient artist Adrian Gray, 44, spends hours scouring a nearby beach to select the ideal-sized rocks, boulders and pebbles to fit with each other. Adrian then arranges them in precarious positions by very carefully 'feeling' the balancing point of each rock - a process that requires supreme skill. In order to avoid them toppling on beach goers, he dismantles them after taking a picture for his gallery, which now includes photographs of dozens of incredible sculptures.
這位富有耐心的藝術家是44歲的阿德里安·格雷，他會花幾個小時在附近的沙灘尋找理想的岩石、卵石和礫石，看看它們是否相互適合。然後，阿德里安會小心翼翼地“感受”每塊石頭的平衡點，把它們擺放成各種造型，這些石頭的擺放方式看起來就有種搖搖欲墜的感覺。這種疊石頭的過程要求具有高超的技巧。爲了防止這些作品被沙灘上的遊客推倒，阿德里安會先給他的作品拍照，放在自己的畫廊中，然後親自把它們拆掉。現在，他的畫廊裏已經有幾十幅這種不可思議的藝術作品的照片了。

But not everyone believes his art is genuine, with people previously accusing him of using Blu Tack or even glue to hold the stones in place.
也有人提出質疑，先前有人懷疑他是使用了萬能膠把石頭給粘起來的。

'If people disbelieve what they are seeing, it means I have achieved my aim of creating art that has a sense of wonder and magic, which I think a lot of contemporary art nowadays is lacking.'
阿德里安說，“如果有人不相信他們所看到的，那麼就達到了我創作藝術的目的，藝術就是要給人一種奇蹟和魔力的感覺，而現在很多當代藝術都已經喪失了這種感覺。”
