Ella's Ink Represents Life and Death

Earlier this month, I met Ella Caution at the NYC Tattoo Convention. She shared this tattoo from her arm:

This Day of the Dead-inspired design was tattooed by Josh Damaso from NYC Kulture on St. Mark's Place in Manhattan.

Ella gave me a brief explanation of the symbolism in the tattoo, saying it has representations of time, life, and death. Past and present are inherent in the piece, and the tentacles in the crown are symbolic of evolution.

Ella is a designer and model. Check out her Etsy site here.

Thanks to Ella for sharing her tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
