My interest in word tattoos inhabits the border between passion and obsession. It finds new subjects at every beach, every bar, every barbershop, every airport... I noticed a small poem inked below the heart of a shirtless hiker and asked him about it. "My mom and I went out and had the same thing tattooed in the same place the morning that my little brother died." This started my journey into the meaningful stories behind tattoos.
A woman at a beach club in Buyukada, Turkey, had three young children at her side and a sentence that translates into 'Sometimes the best things in life start out as mistakes' etched onto her waist. This reflects the emotional depth and personal significance that tattoos can hold, illustrating that even in apparent chaos, there can be beauty and meaningful revelations.
