EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant era of the 1970s. Tattooist John Taylor, a mere sixteen years old from Kings Lynn, is seen skillfully etching ink onto the skin of Della Gilbert, a confident twenty-year-old woman. The date inscribed on the photograph reads 1st July 1978, forever capturing this moment in time. The image exudes an air of rebellion and self-expression that defined the tattoo culture during this period. As John meticulously maneuvers his needle across Della's skin, their focus is unwavering - a testament to their dedication to their craft. The intensity in their eyes reveals both determination and trust between artist and canvas. This snapshot beautifully showcases how tattoos were not just reserved for sailors or outcasts but had become an art form embraced by people from all walks of life. It symbolizes a shift in societal norms as individuals sought personal empowerment through body modification. Garrett Geoff's masterful composition captures every detail with precision - from the intricate designs adorning Della's body to the concentration etched on John's youthful face. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder of an era when tattoos became more than just permanent ink; they became symbols of identity and individuality.
