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.

Thanks to Darwin Enriquez from Mithos Tattoo in Caracas, Venezuela for sending in not just this great newschool tattoo of a customer’s kitten, but also the original photo and the sketch it’s designed around (which reminds me, BMEshop is carrying the Jim Miner Tattoo Sketchbook).
