Travelling with a nomad mind: read an abstract of the editorial by Miki Vialetto

These are just a few examples of people who have made travelling an essential part of their work as tattooists; travelling with no specific destination in mind, they’ve embraced encounters with the locals while observing and discovering everything around them. They were aware of the fact that each encounter would ultimately enrich their tattooist souls. And they’ve travelled not only in the most remote and faraway corners of the world, but everywhere – with a curiosity-filled attitude and love for discovery. That mentality was at the foundation of the “golden era of tattooing”…

Ami James: “You don’t succeed, if you never fail”

He’s definitely one of the most well-loved and famous personalities in the tattoo sector. A real old-school tattooer, he’s had a tattoo machine in his hand for over 25 years now. In this interview we did at Tattoo Life with Miki Vialetto, we present Ami James in a different light: we’ve taken him away from the TV spotlights and looked back at some milestones – some perhaps revealed for the first time here – of his now high-flying career…

This is why, in this article, we have chosen to give the place of honour to the images of his works, bodysuits in particular…

Sway Tattooer: Spiritual mood in a traditional mark

We were struck by his work, which has a spiritual nature and is linked to Tibetan symbolism. These are sacred, philosophical subjects which are also infused with a solid sense of power by the bold black, which can also be found in his traditional pieces…
