Tattoo ink Canvas


Tattoo ink Canvas is not about tattoo in the traditional sense. Rather, it is about transferring the art of tattoo from the body to the canvas, about stirring up the categories of moving and inert art.

The concept of Tattoo ink Canvas was born in Chile in 2009 from a series of improvised encounters where performers of the body arts expressed their visions in magnificent paintings, skateboards, shoes, carton and wood. The audience could experience live painting, global and experimental music, visual arts, dance and poetry. The encounters became a unique framework of experimentation and spontaneity where the art of tattoo fusioned with other arts and generated unexpected outcomes.

The event is organized by Leonardo Cuevas (Chile), producer and photographer, Hanna Skartveit (Norway), antropologist and translator, and producer asistent Israel Silva (Chile), tattoo artist .The event forms an artistic symbiosis: a workshop and meeting place for artists and a distinctive space for the audience, who may also be participants. We will create an atmosphere of visual and auditory stimuli where the contributors work towards an experimental fusion of their diverse personal backgrounds and together aspire towards the origins of art itself.

There is no doubt that Barcelona is one of the world’s hubs for Graffiti and Street Art. The walls of the city have literally become a canvas for both unknown taggers and world famous urban artists. In 2003, Robert Burt founded Base Elements Urban Art Gallery in hopes of creating a space where young street artists could not only showcase their talents, but where they would be embraced and accepted as true artists. At present day the gallery acts as a workshop, meeting space and forum for new and cutting edge thought.
Situated in a winding, cobble-stoned street in the historic Gothic quarter , the gallery is full almost to the point of chaos with the modern and edgy. The pieces that adorn the walls are vibrant in color and varied in content. Both large and small, the works include those of some of the most talented urban artists in the world today including: PezKhamino, Pedro Cuevas, Kenor, Ovni, Tofu, Tec & Piu.
