Blue Man Group founder turns his head into wild canvas for wearable art — he’s ‘making baldness cool’

He’s a-head of his time.
Chris Wink, a New York native and one of the founding members of the iconic performance art company Blue Man Group, has found a new way to express his imaginative soul on the outside — by rocking a variety of intricate mohawks he calls “art fins.”
“I’ve got this bald head and, in a weird way, it’s kind of like a blank canvas,” Wink told The Post.
“I used to have hair — with Blue Man we would put bald caps on — but at a certain point, I said, ‘F—k it. I’ll just shave it off,’” he said.
And similar to how people express their personalities through hair and nails, he realized he could do that with his head.
Now he’s “making baldness cool.”
It was a flashback to NYC in the 1990s.
The killing of Iran’s tyrannical Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Saturday in an unprecedented joint military attack by the US and Israel called Operation Epic Fury set off widespread celebrations from Iranians around the world — as President Trump said it would give them their “greatest chance” to “take back the country.” Meanwhile, in Iran, a lack of internet has made it impossible for Iranians to easily communicate daily conditions. Over a period of three days, with limited VPN connection, an eyewitness currently in Tehran — who, for her safety, is concealing her identity — shared her account of life under a country in the midst of battle with The Post’s Natasha Pearlman.
