Tattoos are multicultural, intercultural etc. Vince Hemingson featured last night on CBC's The National
Imagine my surprise when I was watching CBC TV's The National, and
there was a familiar face from Kilts Night socials at Doolin's Irish
Pub. Vince Hemingson – tattoo maven and connessieur expert, was
being interviewed for The National.
Vince explained how tattoos used to belong to the realm of royalty in
many Renaissance cultures before they fell into the subcultures of the
20th Century. Now flaunted by Hollywood actors, rock and hip hop
artists, Vince identifies them as our “new royalty.”
Vince also travelled to Borneo on a tattoo exploration adventure for the
documentary “The Vanishing Tattoo” described as a modern Indiana Jones
adventure.
