Håvve Fjell (featured in the video) adds this..

“I should mention that Pain Solution has been granted funding from the Norwegian Cultural Council to produce a play combining classic sideshow and self-torture for the theatre scene. My aim is to strengthen the genre I work with in the cultural landscape, bringing it up and out from the underground. Freak show for the people!

Also, I have started a Fakir school in order to educate the next generation, and shape artists I can work with in the future.”

If I was going to make a list of everything wrong with this video, it would be a very long list…

Red and Black Forearms

You’ve probably seen this red and black tribal/geometric tattoo incidentally in previous posts, but I got some better photos from the artist, Tang Chao at Yizu Tattoo in China that I’d like to share here.

Audrey Hepburn Tattoo

Posted on June 16, 2007 by Shannon Larratt

This tattoo, based on the poster for Breakfast at Tiffany’s, was done by Shane at Big Kahuna in Boca Raton. It also gives me the opportunity to again promo the ModProm shirt (or a full ModProm ticket) which is based on the exact same image!

“Get Fuct” Inner Lip Tattoo

Posted on June 16, 2007 by Shannon Larratt

Tattoo by Jason D at Endless Summer Tattoo in Cocoa Beach, Florida. Oh, and if you’re wondering why people get rude inner lip tattoos, the traditional explanation is that inner lip tattoos are only seen by police when you’re searched before being tossed behind bars. Not sure if insulting your jailer is generally a good idea, but I appreciate the sentiment…

Blam-o! Ka-pow!
