Every BODY Has A Story - Liberation Iannillo

neckftat.jpg"Most of my tattoos are of the work of other artists who have inspired me in some way. Right now I am very much into street art so of course it had to find its way onto my body.

I would love to give you some profound statement as to why I chose my Neck Face tattoo, but honestly I chose it because it makes me laugh. Neck Face’s work has this 1987, stoner, heavy metal quality to it that, for some reason, I identify with. I am attracted to the rawness of his style and I look forward to seeing how he develops as an artist.

After looking at what seemed like hundreds of images I chose this one because it looks hideous but for some reason he colored him Barbie pink. Again, I wish I could intellectualize it but I can’t. My gay devil just makes me smile."
