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.

Zips and Ribbons

The following set of photos (clickthrough for a shot of Zippy Jaclyn) are the handiwork of Quinn Patrick, The Fall Tattooing, Vancouver, BC.

    Both are beautiful, but I really like the zipper simply because I haven’t seen it before.
