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.

Crafty Tattoo

Did I say I wasn’t posting until Tuesday? Meh, I don’t have a calender. I think that Kimmie needs to be considered as a cover model for the new CRAFT magazine… Tattoo by Seth Wood at Daredevil Tatooo in NYC.

    I just saw that this was posted up… it’s definitely a work in progress. Thanks for all the awesome comments!

    For those interested in the glasses, they’re from Fabulous Fanny’s in NYC.

    Also, depending on how my arm is positioned the lady looks sad, worried, apathetic, or in this case, surprised. She’s just as moody as I am!

For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced
  • A Nightbird’s Passage
    Some stories take their time, unfolding over decades, through life’s long detours and diversions. But dreams never rest until they’re fully realized.
