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.

    There’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.

  • A Nightbird’s Passage
    by Jonathon
