From Ink and Skin to Canvas and Paint: South African Tattooists Showcase Artistic Talent

South Flores Street, August 16, 2024 — Into the Void, a local tattoo shop, marked its third anniversary on Friday with an art exhibition that highlighted the diverse artistic talents of its staff. The event, held at Galeria E.V.A., featured a range of artistic expressions beyond tattooing, including painting and mixed media.

The gallery was alive with the energy of DJs spinning vinyl records as art enthusiasts and community members gathered to appreciate the vibrant works displayed on the walls. Among the highlights was Esther Quiara’s acrylic painting titled “Fear,” which captivated viewers with its intense emotional expression.

Organizing the exhibition required five months of meticulous planning and preparation. The artwork, created by the tattooists and other local artists, was produced amidst their demanding work schedules and personal commitments. The showcase offered a unique glimpse into the artistic versatility of tattoo professionals, demonstrating their creative skills across different mediums.
