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.

Jesus Christ Scarification

Ryan Corrigal, cutting at Strange City in Edmonton, Alberta did this great cutting on Matt. Brian has been out there cutting as well, so expect a few more posts of what they’ve been doing soon.

    Ryan and Brian work good together in my opinion. I’m pretty sure that I had their first collaboration piece. I always love seeing new pieces that Ryan does.

    The robot is by far my favorite.
    But that may just because I’m obsessed with them.

    When Ryan posted this on another site I frequent, the first thing I thought was Jesus being all, “Hey guys, what’s going on over here?”

    It’s great though.
