Check out BME employee Phil Barbosa‘s new tattoo designed by IAM:killmylovekill and done here in La Paz, Mexico at Sadofilia. Click the dancing toes below to see a day old photo of it (sorry, it’s hard to get a good photo of a day old tattoo), and if you’d like to see the painting it’s based on, click here.
Phil says to mention that his feet (well, the right one anyway) are still a bit messed up since the accident (which explains why blue robot is not as good a dancer as red robot). He did however clean his toenails!

It is somewhat strange to see a painting that is hanging above my bed tattooed on someones feet. A tattoo that is supposed to represent me giving my girlfriend (iam:revolutionairie) a flower. Don’t be surprised if you see those robots tattooed on two more people in the near future as it was our intention to get them tattooed when we had the painting made for us.
they are pretty cute.

i found the painting while viewing her online portfolio. it was never my intention to offend anyone by tattooing it on my feet. its obvios i love the work its self as i decided to tattoo it on me. i hope that this is not seen as anything more then a unique tribute to Lynette and her work.
