tattoo identity

identity

You can frown upon, you can criticize, you can judge but it only means one thing – one way or another you care! An interesting photo exhibit showing the work of Benoit Meeus in one of the corners of the world!

intact

unpierced

unpierced ears – and that is actually both unusual and absurd – a nice example how you can come up with something quite interesting and yet totally pointless! 😉

how to …

tattoo artist

to all of you out there aspiring to become a tattoo artist or a body piercer!

This one is a gem on its own as branding and scarification do not appear in online articles too often; and even if it’s just local news, it’s still interesting to read!

body as a tool of protest

Artist Pyotr Pavlensky sits on a wall after he cut off a part of his earlobe during his protest action titled "Segregation" in Moscow

It’s not new, of course, and using one’s body to protest against political systems can go way farther but this one is interesting in so many ways! Thanks to Bastian for sharing the link about Pjotr Pawlenski and his protest/ performance!

fantasy land

GoT

a nice slide show of fantasy tattoos from Germany.

The real world, however, is not a fantasy land, so no wonder that some of us need to accomodate our looks to others’ expectations: ear lobe reconstruction, sad but true!

Korean tattoo

Interesting examples of tiny and cute tattoos from Korea. Soemthing serious along the legal lines as South Korea debates legalizing tattoos.

i will always … have you

bristol tattoo project

A nice article on BBC website about a tattoo project in Bristol. Tattoos and stories behind them are recorded digitally to show the local tattoo community. Maybe it’s cliche and old but who cares when behind every body there really is a cool history?
