Insert Pigment Here, The Art of Tattoos, Exhibition For better or for worse, body modification has been used for many things. Among the most popular forms of body modification, tattoos have transcended from markers of rites of passage to elaborate body art defining the bearer’s persona. Whether or not your mother agrees with your decision to mark yourself, there is still a meaningful background behind the art of tattoos. The purpose of this exhibition is to give local tattoo artists the opportunity to elucidate the beauty of body modification and exemplify the process behind the art in a fun, yet professional environment.
