Ron Athey is a body modification performance artist that uses his and others’ bodies as canvases of expression! Watching what he does to himself in the name of art and creativity leaves me speechless. In his own way, Ron has been a leader in the fight against the ideologies of the Far Right in America and their small-minded ideas of what is normal. Today we would like to share with you some photos of him as well as several of his performances. Ron Athey is PUNK ROCK in every sense of the word!

I saw one of his performances many years ago during L’Étrange Festival in 1999. VERY impressive. Glad to see that he’s still alive 😉
