Central Tattoo Studio and Create! Magazine are pleased to announce an open call to artists inspired by tattoo culture. Artists are welcome to submit work that addresses the rich visual history of tattooing. This exhibition invites artists to interpret the theme by using their unique style, subject and creative approach. Painting, drawing collage, photography and more will be considered.
