Is there anything more breathtaking than a dancer’s graceful body mid-pose? Berlin-based Chilean mixed media artist Jose Romussi — whose lovely embroidered works we spotted over on My Modern Met — takes vintage black and white photos of ballerinas and embellishes their already elaborate costumes with colorful thread stitching. The result is fun and playful, breathing new life into images that have been frozen in time for decades. Click through now to meet his beautiful dancing ladies.
