The world of body modification has found an indisputable reference in Black Alien. With a presence that questions conventional canons of beauty and aesthetics, her body has become a phenomenon on social networks.
Over the years, this unique character born in France has crossed the boundaries of what is considered a body transformation, taking his body to a level of alteration that few dare to explore.
From the forking of his tongue to subcutaneous implants, Loffredo has redefined what it means to change the human body. His project, The Black Alien Project, has not only included eye tattoos and finger amputations, but also radical changes to his nose and ears.
These procedures, some carried out clandestinely in Mexico due to their extreme nature - in other countries he has not found anyone willing to perform the interventions -, have transformed Loffredo into something that resembles a science fiction character more than a traditional human. .
Recently, however, Loffredo has announced a surprising decision: the end of his trajectory of transformations. Despite having only achieved 65% of the project's initial goal, Loffredo believes that the meaning of his mission has been lost over time.
“This project to which I gave everything, love, passion, determination, strength, has lost its meaning over the years, I did not expect it to have so much impact on the world, to be known I did not know how to manage it and my project has lost its “Sense, 6 months separate these two photos on the left,” he said in an Instagram post, whose account has been permanently deactivated.
Despite this hiatus, Loffredo plans to complete his full black, a process that consists of completely covering his body with dark-colored tattoos, before ending his body modification journey: "I don't like this world anymore, I'm going to end my full black all over my body and finish like this for the moment."
Loffredo has shared his experience with astonishing candor on other occasions. In an interview given to El Periódico de Catalunya in 2021, he explained that for him these modifications were not mutilations, but rather a personal aesthetic evolution. "For me this is an evolution... it's my evolution... it's something aesthetic. Because in the end, I feel better," he said. He has also participated in The Wild Project, with Jordi Wild, where he debuted a large scar on his face.
