When he isn’t hard at work keeping the IT department on track, Kink.com’s Chief Technology Officer Daniel is also an enthusiastic photographer with a keen interest in fetish-oriented subject matter. On a recent weekend, he brought together several of his friends for an intimate photo shoot in the Armory’s basement. But the focus of the shoot wasn’t bondage and domination as you might expect; it was the unique and edgy fetish known as ‘body piercing,’ in which someone is hung in a suspension by hooks in their flesh. Historically practiced for spiritual or religious reasons, today, suspensions of this kind are often done for aesthetic or erotic satisfaction, or as a form of mental and physical discipline. This intense form of play requires practitioners to have extensive knowledge and experience, as well as fastidious attention to detail and unflagging concern for the wellbeing of others. Whether you find the idea disturbing or beautiful, it’s clearly not for the faint-of-heart.
