47 Russian Living Statues Collection

The term living statue refers to a mime artist who poses like a statue or mannequin, usually with realistic statue-like makeup, sometimes for hours at a time.

Living statue performers can fool passersby and a number of hidden shows on television have used living statues to startle people.[citation needed] As with all performing arts, living statue performers may perform as buskers or in commissioned shows.[citation needed] Some living statues are also invited to perform in fine arts exhibitions.
