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.

Abstraction in progress

Written by

Rob

It’s no secret how much I absolutely adore the work of Joey Pang from Tattoo Temple in Hong Kong.  However, Joey isn’t the only artist working at the temple, and it’s high time we took a look at what Jodic Chan has been up to.

This abstract piece is still a work in progress, but you can definitely see where the piece is headed.  While abstract isn’t for everyone, you can still appreciate Jodic’s work from a technical point of view.  Her blending of different art forms into a unified piece is remarkable.  Hopefully we get to see this again when it is fully complete.
