I am celebrating the female athlete's mental strength in which she presents a performance that is seen by the viewer as physical strength.
New York City, NY (PRWEB) May 17, 2017
Psychology is a major part of gymnastics. The most commonly reported attributes for successful and unsuccessful performance outcomes are psychological factors. Studies have proven female gymnasts possess higher levels of concentration than do athletes in other sports due to coping with adversity, peaking under pressure, goal preparation, freedom from worry, achievement motivation and personal coping resources.
Ms. Nialla's black and white photographic series focuses the viewer on the gymnast's ability to present a clean performance while hiding the multiple layers of psychology.
