Ballerinas in their bedroom

A photo project by photographer Demon Dalén shows how ballerinas live in their apartments in New York. All the pictures were taken in the girls' bedrooms, and they themselves froze in ballet steps, not dressed in a ballet tutu, but in pajamas, underwear, and other home clothes.
