I’m in part posting this because I need to test the new WordPress plugins for IAM (if you check my personal blog later today I’ll add instructions. Anyway, this impressive bodysuit (front and back) is from the Oslo Tattoo Convention:
Latest Tattoo, Piercing, and Body Modification News
- Held by Hooks, and Each Otherby JonathonFacilitators and practitioners — the very people who bring so many suspensions to life — often pour their energy into others, quietly setting aside their own opportunities.

Severely affected individuals may suffer from various long-term… Read more: When Tongue Piercings Meet Medicine
- Suspended, Not Silencedby JonathonThere’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension. We all build up ideas about ourselves—what we’re allowed to feel, how much we’re allowed to express, when it’s okay to break. For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced
- A Nightbird’s Passageby JonathonSome stories take their time, unfolding over decades, through life’s long detours and diversions. But dreams never rest until they’re fully realized. Even after 15 years, Robb knew there was still a suspension experience waiting for him. Something left unfinished, something essential. At the Ontario… Read more: A Nightbird’s Passage
- What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soulby JonathonFirst suspensions are rarely just about the body—they’re a meeting point between the physical and the deeply personal. Stepping into this experience isn’t simply about trying something new, but about stepping outside yourself to a version you had always sensed was waiting. I’ve had a… Read more: What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soul
- Skin and Strings: The Art of Human Puppetryby JonathonOne of the most powerful things about being at a convention like OSC is the sheer concentration of experience, creativity, and capability in one place.

Awesome! Dan DiMiattia has a very special talent for blackwork. I hope, one day, to have him cover my face and head with something equally original.

The tattoo is so good that it takes a while for you to realize that he’s standing naked in the middle of a kind of crowded room… it looks so natural, as if the tattoos are his clothes.

wow, amazing! 🙂
I love blackwork

I love blackwork
I didn’t know that was Dan’s work. It seems a little more solid black than I would expect but its beautiful in any case. I also agree with the other poster that it looks like he’s clothed instead of standing naked in a room full of dressed people. top notch work and a great suit concept. Makes you wish you lived in Belgium doesn’t it?

Didn’t know it was a copy. Argh!! Goes to show how much better it looks in the original version. At least my comments about Dan’s work and wanting to live in belgium are still relevant!
