Documentary film Body Art (2000) by Kevin Bachar is for people interested in different body treatments like tattoo, piercing, as well as tribal rituals in Africa or Asia being compared to plastic surgery and body modifications in urban environments.
Documentary film ‘Rize’ on hip hop dancing culture in LA directed by internationally acclaimed photographer David LaChapelle was his directorial debut in 2004.

First, her name sounds even today very hype and cool. But Tashamira’s ‘image’ was crucial, just take a look at her costume and hair cut. She was also one of those faces that were far ahead of their time.
