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.

In brightest day…

In brightest day, in blackest night,

No geeky scar will escape my sight.

Southtownbaby is one nerdy artist.  She’s been piercing for a few years now, and has started getting into scarification work.  This piece in particular was done on a friend, and from what I can see she’s doing a great job.  So keep an eye on the scarification galleries for more of her work.  And before you ask for a follow-up on this one, it’s already in the works.  Hopefully we’ll see it either this week or next.

    I’m really impressed by the precision. I can’t even draw a perfect circle with a compass.

    In brightest day, in blackest night,
    No evil shall escape my sight
    Let those who worship evil’s might,
    Beware my power… Green Lantern’s light!

    Fuckin’ love it!
