Sea of Ink: Savannah Maritime Tattoos
Ships of the Sea Maritime Museum, Savannah, Georgia, 2024

Sea of Ink: Savannah Maritime Tattoos highlighted forty tattoo collectors and fourteen tattoo artists from the Savannah’s booming tattoo scene. Bringing together art, people, maritime tradition and tattoo culture, Sea of Ink reflected upon and challenged contemporary Savannahian's understanding of their identity as individuals and as a community. Using the sea as a symbolic language and art as a visual compass, I argued that the city recognizes itself as a vibrant port city with a thriving arts community and tattoo culture that loves a good story.
