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.

All I want for Christmas…

Written by

Shannon Larratt

Sorry this picture of Fancy Heart and AndSheWas is sort of pixelly… I don’t know what error crept in. Anyway, the original white satin sexy photo is by Lil Chris Thornton. Work in the photo by Rev Lower, Kyle Peterson, and Ill Capp at Evolved (Columbus, OH) and Anatomic Tattoo (Tampa, FL).
