These flower tattoos are designed to have fun body

These flower tattoos are designed to have fun body
There was a time period, says tattoo artist Carrie Metz-Caporusso, when all and sundry who sat in her chair expressed a desire for a tattoo on their back – but just once they'd lost some weight first. As someone who's fat with multiple back and tummy tattoos that she loves, these caveats really bothered her. “My tattoos make me feel great about myself and I wanted others to feel that way too,” she says. “I believed if I could design something just for fat people, that highlighted the things society says is a flaw, possibly I could change some minds.” So she sat down and sketched until she got here up with an idea: roll flowers.  The tattoo industry can often...

Sasha Gordon’s self-portraits are designed to make you uncomfortable

Sasha Gordon’s self-portraits are designed to make you uncomfortable
In her latest exhibition at Hands of Others, currently showing at Jeffrey Deitch in Recent York, Sasha Gordon uses absurdist self-portraiture to focus on the conflicting issues in her personal life. Nevertheless, as an alternative of allowing her audience to sympathise with the stark emotions in her paintings, Gordon’s work is supposed to perturb us; there's a way of unnerving voyeurism when viewing these images as if we're seeing something we should always not.  “I’ve all the time felt really uncomfortable [in my body],” the Brooklyn-based artist tells Dazed. “I need the viewer to feel the identical discomfort of being on this body that’s being critiqued and checked out on a regular basis.
