Clockorange sent in this neat picture of what seems to be a self-portrait on the side of someone’s head (beat that Steve-O!), taken at the 2007 Kyev, Ukraine tattoo convention.

- 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. Brenton and Brittany are one such example. Traveling all the way from Houston, TX, they came to the… Read more: Held by Hooks, and Each Other
- When Tongue Piercings Meet Medicineby Coin-coin le CanapinIn 2010, a German study was published involving subjects with tongue piercings. The tongue piercing was used as part of a device designed to relieve obstructive sleep apnea. Obstructive sleep apnea is a disorder affecting many individuals. 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. When you’re surrounded by people who not only understand the technical complexities of suspension but are excited by the challenge… Read more: Skin and Strings: The Art of Human Puppetry

Awe thats kind of cute. The mysterious eye-looking object behind her face above her ear is a little frightening.

Hm…nice. It kind of looks like a coverup? Because of the coloring just above her REAL ear and that goes through her tattooed ear. The eye is neat.

It’d be funny if the tattoo also had a self-portrait on its forehead 🙂 Very cool.

I think it’s a coverup too. Not sure how I’d feel about getting a self-portrait tattoo though.

Is it just me or is there another tattoo hidden in the tattoo. If you look really hard, you will see another face, but its very faint. Its by the ‘ear’ of the tattoo. Or am I just imagining things?

Maybe she has an identical twin? I also like the idea of the portrait also having a portrait, good call.

It looks pretty cool. I just wonder what it would look like if the allowed her hair to grow bak in. She’d have like a nose and mouth coming out of her temple. Probably more. Guess it would depend on how she wore her hair.

I like the originality of this tattoo, sure Steve-o had his self portrait tattooed on his back, but this is beautiful, not a tack gag tattoo (a really big gag tattoo). I too see the eye but it adds a kind of mystery to this image. Great work.

Yeah, I second Rhiannon; You could get into the whole infinite regression/Hall-of-mirrors thing with a design like that. Of course you’d be limited by the size of the needles, but a nifty idea…

threes something creepy about that?

I agree, looks like a cover up. I really love the subtlety of it though, I think it’s really beautiful! The hidden eye looks almost Geiger-esque, in my opinion.

This will be interesting when she gets old, actually.

It could almost be a representation of a doppelganger. Interesting.

It looks like it is a cover-up over a snake or dragon head or something.
I think it’s pretty nicely done (the new tattoo, it doesn’t work too great as a *cover up*). And something I haven’t seen before.

It’s beautiful and very interesting. The “what if you old” issue relates to any tattoo. In this case it will add an extra interresting dimension.
