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.

Shining Star

Written by

Rob

We’ve seen microdermal projects similar to this one before, however this time it isn’t from the gang out in The Netherlands.  Chris Saint is from Santa Clarita, CA and he’s been experimenting with these projects for a while now.  With all piercings there is the possibility for rejection, which is increased in situations like there where he did 28 individual piercings.  What I like about this particular one is that he didn’t use the same size jewelry to give the star a bit of variety.  According to Chris this piece is still in place and he’ll be sending in some healed photos sometime soon.

You can see more of Chris’ work in his BME piercing portfolio.
