These collages represent the fruit of a lasting obsession with tattoos and street art; they are also an attempt to understand whatever is left of the Western civilization.
Most pieces include a greek sculpture covered in a variety of tattoos from human canvases over a backdrop of street art. Both the tattoos and street art were sourced from all around the world, from all corners of the internet and vintage magazines. A word of gratitude and appreciation to all the anonymous artists.
Some of these pieces were featured in the Winter 2022 issue of Open Ceilings: After Hours.
