Trina Merry builds motorcycles out of humans and their bodies.
Not chrome, not steel, just flesh and sweat slathered in paint, writhing into the shape of a machine that never was.
Painted torsos folded into frames, legs masquerading as exhaust pipes, arms twisted into motorcycle wheels.
Each “motorcycle” component like tires, frame, and handlebars is formed by live models.
Bodies have been painted and posed to form mechanical parts.
Creative living sculptures explore the human body as a medium of motion, power, and transformation.
Body paint artist Trina Merry crafts motorcycles entirely out of human bodies, using nothing but paint and precise positioning.
