Marked

WASHINGTON, DC -- OCTOBER 3: Jamie Roman, 21, of DC. "One of the reasons why I started getting work done on myself is because I hated my skin. I didn't appreciate it. So I thought, once I started loving myself, this was an opportunity for me to remake myself and blossom into the person that I am really. Regardless of the social conflict that artwork like this has, it is what you make it. For me I always chose pieces that meant something to me. It's just things that define me and I keep on doing it. It helps me love myself more. I feel like more of what I'm supposed to be. With my chest piece, I cried after the second session because I felt beautiful. That's something I've always struggled with."
