From time immemorial, the desire to decorate one's body has been inherent in man. In some cultures tattooing was perceived as a sacred rite, in others - as a decorative art. Today in the world there are many festivals where you can see the most "decorated" people of our planet, one of the largest started recently in Venezuela.
On our website Kulturologiya. RF we often publish photo reports from tattoo festivals … Annually held tattoo festivals in Singapore, Beijing and London. Caracas (Venezuela) is another city that becomes a haven for tattoo freaks for several days a year.
Venezuela Expo Tattoo Festival this year runs from January 29th to February 2nd. During these days, amazed spectators will be able to see daredevils, whose appearance is no longer similar to a human. Mary Jose Cristerna, a famous female vampire from Mexico, and a terrifying guy with the nickname Red Skull, whose face looks more like a cranium, came to Caracas this year.
In addition to tattoos, the bodies of the models are richly decorated with piercings. Another participant of Venezuela Expo Tattoo is Kala Kaiwi, a tattoo artist from Hawaii, who managed to stretch the earlobe up to 109 mm without surgery. His record even got into the Guinness Book.
For the festival participants, the meeting in Caracas is a great opportunity to communicate with each other, exchange experiences, show off "novelties" on the body, attend master classes and performances. Many things, of course, shock the townsfolk, because endless drawings, earrings and implants change these people beyond recognition. Although the famous lover of body art Johnny Depp once admitted: "I think that the body is in a sense a diary." Well, everyone decides for himself which memories to keep in memory, and which ones - on the body.
