BME: Body Modification Ezine

A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

“I am the high you can’t sustain”

Written by

Shannon Larratt

And I do love getting high…

I realized that I haven’t posted a play piercing photo in a while, so when we got this photo from one of my favorite play piercers (ennui zero — I’m a sucker for her photos: 1 2 3 4) I agreed that it ought to be posted. She tells me she was being a baby that night and just did a few 25 gauge needles but I still like the photo.

PS. It’s covered in this photo but she has a really great lower lip bling that you can check out on her page.

    She’s got a nice bedroom. Sorry I’m always intrigued by the backgrounds of the pictures.
