Reset Design Tattoo by Ami Kealoha
Needled today directs us to the Parisian site Reset Design's project that tasked designers with reinventing tattoos. The 40 different results range from more lyrical ideas, like a rendering of hair (pictured) to macabre comments on the body, such as crucifiction marks and dotted lines for cutting. The work will be exhibited at a show in Paris "dedicated to the manipulation of nature by man," called "Eden Adn" during the St. Étienne Design Biennale from 22 November-3 December 2006.
