Inked at Pace—Culture is Embraced

The Ink Vanguard

It all began with curiosity. This project currently named “Tinta Vanguardia” issues an intercommunity connection of Tattoo Artists within the Latino Community at large, institutional spaces. This initiative aims to provide support to developing entrepreneurs in this medium of artistry. The preservation of cultural heritage, space for healing, and presentation of cultural identity is what makes this potential opportunity for Latine Tattoo Artists to build, and thrive together. The need for preserving space to educate other artists about the core artistic principals in this medium but how body-art alteration shows up in already pre-determined spaces of professionalism.
