British Tattoo Art Revealed - National Maritime Museum
As Part of my Primary research, I thought it was very appropriate to visit the National Maritime Museum in Falmouth, where they held an exhibition all about the history of British tattooing. I learned some much but also saw some really cool art work by current artists in the UK.
One of the main attractions was the '100 Hands Project', where 100 silicon arms where tattooed by selected artists.
At the exhibition, there were also some really cool collectable items, such as old fashioned tattooing kit boxes.
Another thing I thought was quite interesting was their set up of a 1980s tattooing room. which compared to todays, looks very plain and quite boring.
