Bill Dan is a sculptor and performance artist who specializes in creating stone sculptures. He creates what seems impossible, proving that there is no impossible in this world. The incredible skill of the master of balancing Bill Dan (Will Dan) allows him to create stunning balancing towers from stones of various sizes.
Bill Dan, who is originally from Indonesia, currently lives in San Francisco, surprising the inhabitants of this metropolis with his art every day. Crowds of people gather around the master to see with their own eyes how he carefully constructs his pyramids, using what he could find on the ocean shore. To showcase his unique skill, Bill can create a sculpture out of balancing stones in just a few minutes. The sculptor has been improving his art for about 15 years. The dexterous and skillful hands of the master can make huge cobblestones balance harmoniously together with small stones.
And despite the wobbly appearance of each neatly built tower, local birds are very confident in their strength, they even try to make a roost out of them, which very often causes the sculptures to collapse.
To prove that he can balance more than stones, Bill Dunn creates sculptures from balancing Coke cans, wine glasses, and even a pair of sneakers.
In 2004, Bill Dana was shown on the local KQED television show Collaborating with Nature. Since that time, they have not stopped interviewing him, he is a regular guest in various shows and programs in the USA, Japan, Korea and even the Philippines.
