I’ve got copies of Desire ready to ship and be in your hands. I really appreciate the support this zine has got so far. 🩵🩸🩵
A cropped shot from ti’s zine, Desire: on an image of ti tied on a rock on a snowy day by the river, the typewritten words say just a piece of werewolf bait soft piece of werewolf bait ready to be devoured.

My favorite place to be: bare and soaking in blissful crimson ribbons spilling and adoring the piercing sensations through my cheeks. Film by Daddy with suspension by Nexus Body Arts.
ti is laying out naked on a table under an outdoor rig. They have flowing crimson wounds on their torso from where the hooks once were. Their eyes are closed as they soak up this feeling. Their mouth is closed as a cheek spear adorns their face. They are surrounded by green trees and brush.

My chest scars have healed beautifully since May’s suspension. This is one of my favorite places to take hooks. The intensities and emotions it invokes bring me so much warmth and peace. Hopelessly in love. (From Cryptid Creek Suspensions with photo by Daddy)
ti is laid out on a lavendar massage table in the sun. They are nude with their eyes closed in bliss as two Gilson hooks are pierced in their chest.

I wrote about what it feels like when a suspension has to end; my skin is prone to tearing. There’s more I can say than what IG and this app allows. It’s never easy when my spirit is so set to fly and my body says otherwise. I will keep bleeding and feeling it all. Suspension by Nexus Body Arts 💜
ti is nude and laid out on a massage table with their eyes closed. They are bleeding from their cheeks and their torso after six hooks were removed. The crimson trails down their flesh as they are basking in the light.

Thinking about how lack of masking in kink spaces has plunged me further into sensation in nature. Thankful for jagged rocks and cooling ripples and being made to endure them all. Shot on film and tied by Daddy.
ti is nude and kneeling on jagged river rocks as the river in the back moves swiftly. Their dark brown hair has fallen to cover their chest and they are in rope with their arms behind their back. They are soaking up every sensation in the emerald forest. ti is turned to the side with their head to the sky. Bare and bound in rope with their arms behind their back on river rocks as the water flows behind them. The valley holds low hanging clouds and lush green trees.

Soaking up every swim as I float under the moon before I suspend again. My flesh is so eager for every sensation. My heart is so eager to love and love some more.

In constant awe of time and our bodies as last month made my 17 year anniversary in suspension. Caressing these scars in admiration and devotion as I yearn for what comes next. From May’s reunion with photo by Daddy on film and suspension by Cryptid Creek. 💚
ti is sitting nude with their arms on the table and their legs in front of them. The sun is shining on their flesh as they close their eyes to take it all in with hooks in their chest, hips, and above their knees. They are surrounded by grass as a tree stands behind them.

This is Cooper. Like his namesake, he is curious and loves to solve puzzles, and is an absolute sweetheart cutie. There are a lot of emotions clashing with one another. I am hopeful and I feel guilty. I hold him close while crying about Balu. Grief is funny like that. We love you so much, Cooper.

Still processing this homecoming. Bathing in light and breathing all of the intensities in. Absolutely divine. (Taken by Daddy with suspension by Cryptid Creek). 💜

I’m home again. Thank you to Daddy for making this early birthday gift happen and to my dear friend Sam for her support and to Cryptid Creek Suspensions for reuniting me with the intensities I hold so close to my heart. I am eager to see what comes next. To growing scars and glowing in crimson.
Tiana is nude and bathed in sunlight as they are suspending with two hooks in their chest, two in their hips, and two above their knees. Their head bends back as their dark brown hair wafts in the breeze with their arms to the side. Below them are growing blades of grass with a wooden fence and grey blue home in the background.

Thoughts and emotions and more to follow. Yesterday’s reunion bathed in light and crimson was what my yearning heart needed. I am home again.
Tiana’s lips are slightly parted, wearing their black ring collar as their bare chest is exposed to show two bandages bulging in blood. One bandage is leaking as the fresh and crusted blood seeps out.

Sometimes I feel too much for zine spaces and not enough in other art spaces. In this hellish timeline, at least I can take comfort that I don’t create soulless AI art and that it all comes from a hideous, pulsating, messy place. I’d rather create “bad” art than nothing at all.
Glimpses of the covers of seven of Tiana’s zines: Flower Boy, This Is Not A Ghost Story, Zings, Become, The Pain Scale, Every Ocean is Home, Morning Light Mourning Air. All covers use typewriter text affixed to photos.

May is the stinging of a wound reopening and the sweetness of rebirth.

May is the crimson rage coating and the violence I hold in my heart.

May we never lose our voice.
Tiana is nude with a churning waterfall projected onto their body. They are bleeding from their forehead and their eyes are closed as their hands are prying their mouth open as the blood drips onto their tongue.

First zine event of the year. This is my first time vending at Olympia Zine Fest and I’m so excited to share my zines with you. It is also a masks required event which are my favorite. 💜

This suspension felt like my first time in sensation and wonder. This was back in 2017 and feels both distant and far away. I recognize this person’s radiance in this moment from a world we no longer live in. Back in time from Skin: NYC, photo by ohgodwhyme
Tiana is nude and beaming as they are suspended by hooks through their back, chest, torso, hips, and thighs. They are in the center of an installation.

I’ve had hooks floating in my head and today, I reminisced about my first resurrection in 2012 and how this was the first time I didn’t think I’d leave the ground. It was tough to get in a settled headspace with this one but this became my favorite position. Photo by Aaron Hawks
Tiana is wearing a black bra and black laced underwear and suspended by four hooks through their torso. Their black hair drapes down as they fly against a white background.

The constant desire to feel moss on flesh and sensation on skin. I will always wait in devotion to winter.
Tied and shot on film by Daddy.
Tiana is standing nude up against a mossy tree. They are bound in rope up against it with their arms above their head. Their head is turned to the right. There are mossy branches extending and bare trees surrounding them. The ground is covered in fallen brown leaves as the river carries on behind them.

There is something so honest and intimate about film. I’ve been grasping at every ephemeral detail as it slips out of my hands. The fleeting nature of it all pulls and pushes and eventually breaks. My heart my heart my heart.
(photo and rope by Daddy)
Tiana is nude and sitting on their own calves with their body turned to expose more of their back. Their hands are tied behind their back. The ground is blanketed in a thick snow with the river in the background.

Daddy and I said goodbye to our precious seal yesterday. My heart is in pieces. Rest sweetly, Balu. 💕

Thinking about this suspension from 2014 because I’m always thinking of each mark. A cave in the valley’s hills. Blood bursting from bandages and melting chocolate pretzels sticking to fingers. The aches in looking back but the warmth the scars always emanate.
Tiana is nude and suspending from hooks, a set in their back, arms, and one on their right knee in a dancer’s pose. Behind them is a cave with sanded terrain.

And with everything that rises, there will be a fall. It’s the waiting for the fall. For the swelling storm to fade. For my limbs to untangle. For my hair to unravel. For my heart to hold. For my spirit to forgive me.

Photo by @everything-kills.bsky.social
The sun has set as night starts to creep in and Tiana is nude with their legs and arms on the ground. They are raised in a feral pose as their dark brown hair drapes over their face, exposing their teeth. They are in the middle of a stone pit as fallen leaves and Los Angeles dirt surround them.

I’m not ready to give up winter yet. I’m not ready for the blossom. I’m not ready for the bloom. Holding onto the bareness of it all.
Tiana is standing up against a mossy tree as their nude body is tied in rope. Their dark brown hair is down and they are wearing their black ringed collar and chest harness as their light brown nipples are exposed. Their face is facing to the right. There is rope around their torso and their hands are tied above their head. The winter greenery around is bare with fallen leaves on the ground as the river flows in the background.

Sunday in two photos.
Tiana’s wrist lays on a bed of moss. Their flesh is flushed and reddish with prominent imprinted rope marks on their wrist. A Le Wand vibrator in its case is thrown onto the forest floor as it rests on top of fern leaves, moss, and crunchy fallen leaves.
