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.

Antlers

Written by

Shannon Larratt

The lovely Dunebug has one of my favorite implants that Steve Haworth has ever done — the textured pieces running across her collarbones — augmented with tattooing by Jackie Brown at No Ka Oi in Philadelphia. I’m a big fan of her work and aesthetic in general!

    What is the facial stripe exactly? I dunno if this is a common marking or not but I’ve seen it on other modded people before. It was a soft color just like hers. I love how it looks.

    actually nevermind. It was her that I saw before with the facial stripe. I didn’t realize it was the same person. I still love it though.

    i love the implants and the tattoo execution, but alas, once again my unreasonable prejudice against yellow comes into play.
