“Flesh sculptor” Steve Haworth sees his work as “making personal dreams come true.”
How does Haworth do this? He is a body modification artist, performing operations on his clients that would lose any medical professional his or her license. (Not sure what “body modification” means? Google knows.) From implants to suspension, Haworth answers dreams that, to many outside the body modification community, look more like nightmares.
Whether you think body modification is beautiful and entrancing or more like a bloody car wreck that you just can’t look away from, IndieFlix has your Saturday planned out for you. First, a movie: In FLESH & BLOOD, filmmaker Larry Silverman got unprecedented access to Haworth’s practice and his clients’ experiences, and he used it to make one of IndieFlix’s most popular documentaries. Then, see it live: After the movie, head over to Deep Roots on University Avenue for their annual suspension performance this Saturday night. It’s a movie–and a show–you won’t be able to forget…even if you want to.
