The images in "The Struggle to Right Oneself" investigate the idea of "control" and its psychological role in society, according to artist Kerry Skarbakka.
"The images stand as ominous messages and reminders that we are all vulnerable to losing out footing and grasp. Moreover, they convey the primal qualities of the human condition as a precarious balancing act between the struggle against our desire to survive and our fantasy to transcend our humanness," Skarbakka said in a statement.

"It is necessary to point out that I do not consider myself a glorified stuntman; nor do I wish to become a sacrifice to art. Therefore, safety is an important factor, however the work does carry with it a potential risk of personal injury as I engage the moment. This is unavoidable as much of the strength of the images lie in the fact that they are all recorded on location," Skarbakka said in a statement.
