    Shige practicing Zen in the Art of Tattoo... so good he can do chest pieces with his eyes shut. The knee tattoo brings back bad memories of pain and swelling.

    hw1776 got a reaction from hogg in Analog Kolectiv Gallery Opening in SF?   
    It was a pleasure to have met you @hogg ! Had a great time chatting, and realized what a small world it is sometimes. I drove by the place later at night, and it was quite amazing to see the closed gate/entrance, with no one standing in front, but with the light from inside beaming out.

    I emailed Adrian Lee and he said that it'd be great to post anything about the exhibition and that it'll be up for two months. Here's a few photos for your viewing pleasure:

    that was an amazing experience! to see tattoos and actual live tattooing represented at a museum was incredible, along with watching so many body suits displayed at one time.

    my favorite part was getting the epic catalog signed by the artists, and shige doing a full page autograph! i might be wrong, but i believe my buddies and i were the only ones to get the full pager!! i wish i was able to get a vid but my phone died...

    Don't miss this if you have the opportunity. Last night was pretty cool and today should be also.

    Apologies for vertical format; space was cramped and seemed like the best way to get as much of each body as possible.

    I had the pleasure of hanging around while Taki checked the exhibition yesterday and did his press conference.
    I don't normally get involved in gallery shows and museums because they usually focus on the paintings tattooers produce which doesn't interest me as much as tattoos but this is and incredible thing for me to be part of. Mostly because of the other tattooers involved.
    It's a small-ish exhibit as far as museums go but there's a hell of a lot to see. I'm not going to review it, I'll leave that to others, I just wanted to share a few of the photos I took yesterday. I checked with Taki and he's ok with me posting them here but most of all: Photography is encouraged at this exhibition. If you post the shots to instagram, twitter etc. Please hashtag them #JANMtattooshow
    Enjoy.
