The tattoo industry is undergoing significant transformation, facing challenges from medical scrutiny to economic shifts. Concerns about health risks and heavy metals in tattoo inks have long plagued the industry, prompting ongoing debates about safety and perception. Despite these challenges, tattoo artists continue to innovate and defend their craft.
Durb Morrison and Jake take some time at the Richmond Tattoo And Arts Fest to talk about how the medical industry seems to be pushing on tattooing. They also discuss how the current and next generation might perceive these ideas, and how tattooing might need to ramp up it's PR game to defend it's place in society.
We hope you enjoy this conversation, and thank you for supporting what we do!
