Photographer Spotlight: Tom Ringsby

A striking series of images by London and Oslo-based photographer and filmmaker Tom Ringsby (previously featured here). Before moving to London to start his career, Ringsby taught a creative summer school in Accra, Ghana. Years later he returned to reconnect with one of his former students, Prince Aryee, the Dragon Boy. Together they collaborated on a film and photo series documenting a burgeoning new performance art form combining acrobatics, dance and fire-breathing, amongst other awe-inspiring physical feats. See more images from the project below.
