maori backpieceby ~nakedarttattoo

Traditional Art / Body Art / Body Modification / Tattoos

This is a backpiece inspired by maori artwork. I did this tattoo at Ultimate skin tattoo in Leeds UK on Lee.

Daily Deviation

Given 2008-01-08

A stunning Tribal work, maori backpiece by *nakedarttattoo is beautifully proportioned and takes best advantage of the negative space qualities of maori-style tattooing... a work of art to wear with pride. ( Featured by `stigmatattoo )

Hm, wow, interesting, and very gorgeous to look at. Is there any meaning behind it, or was it just the geometric patterns that inspired it. A lot of traditional Maori patterns reflect the person, and are usually done by a person who knows 'em.
