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.

What is this? I don’t even.

Forgive the confusing title.  I’m currently nursing my addled brain back to competency after staring at this Vincent Hocquet piece for the past hour.

I sense a trip to Beautiful Freak Tattoo in Belgium in my future.
