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.

Custom Titanium Industrial Jewelry

Karl had a pair of lobe piercings and a helix (with 14ga rings in them), and after seeing a lot of nice industrial piercings, he decided he wanted something himself. As a jewelry maker, he made himself what he calls “Kadster’s Cubics and Claws“, a piece of custom titanium jewelry he made for himself. It’s put into the lobes first, and is then turned upside down to fit into the helix.

    This is hands down the best looking ear I have ever seen. I love how it’s gorgeous from the front and the back.

    It’s so futuristic, I love it.
