This book comprises a personal choice of photography´s taken by me in response to my major project. It is part of a set 3 books that demonstrate my research journey into my final outcome. Tattooed is my personal view on tattoo studios, artist and conventions. From London to Lisbon this book welcomes you into the world of permanent loyalty of the Tattoo Subculture Stewed, Screwed and Tattooed.
1. V. Vale & Andrea Juno, Modern Primitives
“A tattoo is more than a painting on the skin, its meaning and reverberations cannot be comprehended without a knowledge of the history and mythology of its bearer. thus it is a true poetic creation, and is always more than meets the eye, as a tattoo is grounded on living skin, so its essence emotes a poignancy unique to the mortal human contidion.” 1
