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.

The Friday Follow-up

Written by

Rob

Another week, another friday, and another scar to catch up on.  Back in August we saw an incredible cutting by Montreal’s Efix Roy.  He managed to cut a design of the 8 auspicious symbols of Buddhism into a lucky client.

To see how it healed up, keep on reading.

So, while it may not be completely healed, here’s how it’s looking a few months after the cutting took place.

Efix’s BME scarification portfolio gallery is full of many more of his designs and worth checking out.

    Incredible. I’ve been giving serious thought to getting a scarification piece done as well.

    Great work, as always. But you know, Efix is from Quebec, not Montreal. We do fight over poutine supremacy though!
