I wonder if she plans to extend it to cover her whole back like the Royo painting? I’m a big Royo fan and I love that painting. Of course if the gears were real… Maybe in 20 years.

I think the white part is the most impressive part. It’s such a different concept on top of the black and grey tribal but it fits in perfectly.

That’s really interesting, I hope they go for a whole back piece inspired by the painting.

The white part reminds me (and I see I’m not the only one) of a crazy folding knife.
