They Tell A Story
In Christopher Nolan's iconic Memento, the protagonist Leonard, played by Guy Pearce, suffers from short-term memory loss and uses tattooing as a method to remember the loss of the wife that he seeks to avenge. Though many aren't burdened with a disease as serious as that, a tattoo can be used to celebrate a person you love, or commemorate a person you've lost, which is more meaningful in this fast-paced day and age. "My favorite tattoo is a portrait of my daughter done by Todd Harris," says Bang Bang.
