TATOUAGE

Saw the light of day while experimenting with different kinds of chine collé paper of Japanese and Indian origin, old worn posters and old wall paper. All used on the same plate representing an old worn bisque doll with loose arms. Each of the 9 prints are unique.

The title reflects our modern society where tattoo of the human body has become an overwhelming important status symbol for so many people.
