The symbiosis of humans and tattoos spans centuries, reaching back to the Neolithic times. Otzi the Ice Man, a mummy from around 3300 BC, sports a whopping 61 tattoos! The practices and meanings of tattoos also vary across different cultures, ranging from spiritual emblems, status symbols to therapeutic treatments.
Interesting still, the word "tattoo" emanates from the Samoan word "tatau" meaning "to strike", reflecting the traditional method of applying tattoos. In the Japanese culture, tattoos are called "irezumi," and their history is a complex narrative of both societal acceptance and rejection.
Tattoos go way beyond body decoration and fashion, and at Studio Absent, we understand that. Whether you desire a minimalist surrealist piece, a detailed blackwork design or a vibrant tribute to your favorite anime character, you are creating your unique narrative.
Our talented artists and staff are dedicated to bringing your vision to life while ensuring you a relaxing experience in our cozy Tavistock House studio. We respect the intrinsic link between client and ink, and thus, we tailor the designs to perfectly fit the unique contours of your body.
Moreover, cleanliness and sanitation are our top priorities. We go the extra mile to ensure a safe, comfortable, and hygienic environment for all our clients and artists. This allows you to focus entirely on your artistic journey with us, knowing that you're in safe hands.
To conclude, tattoos are personal, expressive, and perpetually fascinating. They speak loudly about who we are, what we believe in, and how we see the world. We cordially invite you to embark on your tattoo journey at our uber-chic studio in Melbourne, where your story, inked in the skin, awaits creation.
