A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

  • “Industrial Love”

    …that’s literally how the photo was titled when I received it. How sweet — click the photo to zoom in (and this time that directive is no dirty trick).

  • I can see her spine!

    Thanks to Rahim (IAM:trexchomp) for these photos. I don’t know how it looks from other angles, but from the side that spine tattoo makes a great picture…

  • Jax Con 2005

    Maxwell Brand from All Or Nothing* just sent me in some pictures he took at the 1st Annual Jacksonville Tattoo Convention. On the left is Cheryl, who’s gotten more work done since this photo was taken (more pictures will be posted in BME’s facial tattoo gallery when I get a chance). Next is Jacki and Johanna, and then the third photo is Elizabeth, part of the Oddity Ink crew. The last picture is Elizabeth with her friend Candice.

    * check their website for updates on their two artists that were recently in a major car crash.

  • Swazicock

    Lick all you want, but that tattoo’s not going anywhere.

    Sorry, I couldn’t think of a non-crass caption.

  • More nice big angel wings

    A while back I showed you the long wing tattoos on winged_boi. Presumably you already know about Elayne Angel‘s pioneering wings (also covered on BME), but I thought that I ought to show you Catie’s wings as well, done by Shaf at Painless Steel in Missoula, MT:

  • Further BME/HARD Japankink

    Oh, Japan, you’re such a fun country. Thanks to Hiro and his slave for these.

  • Nobody Outdoes Argentina?

    We’ve moved a long way past the “string someone up on hooks and swing around for a while” stage of body ritual performance. The previous entry has an obviously theatrical show, but when it comes to this sort of thing, I feel that nobody that I’ve seen outdoes the professionalism and artistry of performance teams in South America, especially Argentina — here are some pictures from a show put on by IAM:la negra and friends with the International Theatre Festival Mercosur in Cordoba.

    I guess it’s a question of whether you’re there to shock, or whether you’re there to create art and music. I’m not sure that one is better than the other, but I am very happy to see the latter path being explored so well. Oh and there are more pictures from this performance on BME.

  • Circus Carnis

    Here’s a shot care of IAM:toddy of a Circus Carnis performance in Northbridge. It looks like a great performance, but I have to admit that it did take some flexing of my self control not to draw cartoon word bubbles and radically change the scene.

  • Starry Skull

    Thanks to Erenee for sending in this picture of thirty-three stars on her head, applied by Adam at River City in Killeen, Texas over two hours… I hope she keeps her head shaved after it’s all healed up, because I think it looks amazing like this!
